I ran your script on my 2004 iBook 1.07 GHz running 10.4.1 and the  
script ran. The shell call returned the following:

Graphics/Displays:

     ATI Mobility Radeon 9200:

       Type: Display
       Bus: AGP
       VRAM (Total): 32 MB

       Device ID: 0x5c63

</paste>

Notice it reports that Core Image is NOT supported. But here's the  
kicker: I have successfully used Core Image transitions on this  
machine, using the new Rev 2.6 capabilities. So there seems to be an  
error in the information the SystemProfiler returns.
