Re: [ccp4bb] Minimum hardware requirement of Mac OSX for CCP4

[Roger Rowlett]

I can run CCP4i and Coot on a netbook, so you should be fine. You have 4X the CPU power of my netbook and dedicated graphics, so no problemo. My at-work desktop stations are Core 2 Duo 3.0 GHz with NVidia 9000-series graphics cards, 256-1024 Mbyte, with 23" LCD screens, and they are plenty fast for now. J.

I have a question about minimum requirement for Mac OSX I have ordered new Mac desktop, iMac, for doing light job at my home. I found that a 21.5 inch iMac, Core 2 Duo 3.33 GHz and shared ATI 4670 graphic card with 256 MB is in my budget. I am curious whether this model of iMac is suitable for CCP4. Please give me advise about it. Thanks & Best regards, Jakrada -- Roger S.
