I'll buy it if I can run it on my 800 Mhz G4 Quicksilver 1GB Motu 828 MKII with DP4.61
I noticed a member of this tribe had an 800 Mhz G4 running DP6.01 but whoa! Look what motu recommends as a minimum for DP 6:

So I am wondering if the same story is similar with Machfive2 and it can run on a slower mac as well?? I just need to buy a little time before I upgrade to a better machine.
Thanks to this group for your time.

Anyone try Machfive2 on a slower 800Mhz G4 tower?

It would probably work to some extent, but I don't think MachFive 2 would be very useful on a machine that old. Additionally, such an old PowerMac G4 probably shipped with a graphics card that won't support MachFive 2. (These would ATI cards; either Rage 128 or Rage 128 Pro.)
The leading cause of wrong answers is asking the wrong questions.
