DP 7.01 with 10.5.8 on G5 Dual 2.0 GHz - stable, works great except a few glitches in mixer GUI

Still have installed: 5.13 (used extensively in the past) & 6.02 (used only a few weeks), but haven't needed either of those since installing DP 7.

At this time see the results below. Some people have multiple systems, for purposes of progress, I took the desktop as the primary system as it generally constitutes the more expensive system and most likely, the studio. This shows what the majority are using, however the survey did not ask what each individual is using their system for, in order for us to really make comparisons. Some people mentioned the stability of their system, which is good, but if we don't know what it's used for, "stable", "rock solid", "working great" etc is relative. May I suggest mentioning commercial and non commercial use as a description? All the same, thanks for chiming in guys
