I have it installed on a PowerPC G5... It bogs down my entire computer when it's open and not even doing anything. Not sure if that is normal, but if it is, I don't know if I'd WANT to run it on anything lesser than a G5...
I have it installed on a backup system Quicksilver Dual G4 running Tiger here at work. It's no speed demon, but it runs...
Let me rephrase... it runs great. It is faster than CS3, hands down.
But when I'm not using it, and it is sitting idle, it is hogging a lot of my CPU processing.... does that make sense? Not RAM, but CPU.
