Final Cut Pro 3 and earlier will work on that machine and Mac OS 9.2.2; you may need to install more RAM first. Click here for complete requirements.

There is a good version of iMovie for that Mac also. (maybe 2.11?) Casual users find it much more approachable, unless they have been trained using Final Cut Pro.

Thanks both of you I know about iMovie but I can find final cut pro for Mac OS 9 for pretty cheap so why not take advantage of the cheaper pro software ? I might wait though until I get a B&W PM.
