Re: DV editing and dvd burning realistic on a Pismo?

[Hal]

iDVD doesn't support burning to external DVD-R drives, but there is a 
patch. I've used it successfully on a G4 Cube with an external firewire 
burner.

That said, I think the encoding will take a quite a bit longer on a 
Pismo G3 than on any G4. I'm not sure how well iMovie runs on a G3, so 
you'll have to play with it.

I currently run OS 9.2, but am willing to upgrade to OS X. I am 
contemplating maxing the Ram to 1 Gig and getting a 40- or 60-gig 
internal hard drive.

If this is not practical, I am considering upgrading to an iBook with 
internal Superdrive.

Any ideas will be appreciated. I am new to the list, so forgive me if 
this is an old, worn-out topic.

Thanks,
Dave
