I've been using the last dual processor 1.25 gHz G4 to run OS 9 for a few
years now w/ no problems. It's nice having the dual processors when I use
OS X apps like DP, PT or Peak.

I'm not sure exactly which model it was, but I remember Rick posting about
an incompatibility problem with the G4 he bought and PARIS. I don't think he
could ever get PARIS to run on that machine.

Hey Tony! It was the 2003 G4 Firewire 800 1.42 GHz machine that was bad.
How ever a lot of people still run that machine in studios with no problems.
As they say YMMV!

I'm not saying it's a bad machine, just maybe not so good with PARIS.

That was the only G4 tower that would not run Mac OS 9.
