Bob tried XPostFacto and it will not work with this particular 7600. 
Wht we need it for is video and sound input and then with a firewire 
card output to a DVD. The actual work will be done on the iMacs.  I 
realize that it will be very slow(especially burning the DVD) and 
something like minis would be much better but this organization does 
not have that kind of money.  I was treasurer for years and we were 
always sort of money.  We will network them to smooth out the work 
flow. If any of you have a faster machine that you would be willing 
to contribute let me know and we will grab it.

We need the OS 10 for the iMacs more than the 7600.
