Dropping Back and Going Forward

Since my dual G5 PowerMac is still in the shop, I used my dual 1.25 Ghz G4 PowerMac to edit, encode, and burn a DVD of a 43 minute movie. What my G5 did in less than an hour, the G4 took a couple of hours. I had been wondering if spending all that money on the G5 had been worth it. Now, I know it was.
