Yes, I laud the upgrade to Intel, it was totally a wise decision. It's just
that the $$$$$$$$$$ I have in my two-screen media monster here is REALLY
becoming depressingly obsolete.  ProTools HD (original PCI cards)   has
stopped supporting G5s after the last version 8.01. It's been 9 years with
those cards, a pretty good run for this kins of stuff.

That's the way it goes, in the digital wonderland.

Well if the cooling doesn't blow up "It can always become a server..."
