    According to Adobe's website it requires a G5 processor.



    I remember reading somewhere that during the installation it will cancel the install if it doesn't detect a G5. I'll look for that source...



    An artical from MacCentral states the following:

    "Adobe cautions that the installer will only function on a G5, and the new AltiVecCore plug-in will only function with Photoshop 7.0.1, so make sure your system meets the requirements prior to download or installation."
