IS the g4 ppc version still broken ! if aranym not working on old machines, can we expect it to work on the new ones ? (I am asking anybody who wants to consider it). Like I said i tried it once on my 550mhz g4 back around Febuary or so and heard on this list that someone else had used it succesfully once before but that it was currrently broken on ppc. since my machine was probably not fast enough anyway (I just wanted to try it) I did not pursue any further. But for future planning it might help... [i am blind cc ing the op ...]
