Motion provides motion-graphics creation with real-time previews, procedural behavior animation and Final Cut Pro HD integration. Available as a stand-alone product, or now available in a Production Suite, and a price point of only $299, Motion provides studio-quality video motion graphics at a mere fraction of the previous cost.
This an awesome deal!! (the package) - way to go Apple!! :)
I have a slightly slower processor(800 instead of 867) and slightly lower graphics card(9200 instead of 9600) then is listed on minimum req. I just got this ibookg4 last November and would like to think I will at least be able to RUN the program.

Do the minimum system requirements for motion mean that the program won't even launch with lesser stats? Or will it run but just slow and crappy?

Production Suite is a sweet deal at $499 with the educational discount. I will be ordering by the end of the week. Looks like it will barely run on the PB in my sig. But I do not want to get a new PowerMac for another year or so.

Absolutly - that is really a great deal !!!! I will get the production suite as well ! :D Good job Apple !!! ;)
The only problem is I currently don't have a Mac where this Suite would run on. OMG - I need a new Mac as well. Well I am still waiting for the G5 Powerbook.
I'm happy with the news. I won't personally get it, but I know there are some people that have been waiting for it. Go Apple.
I all fairness you don't buy the lowest level consumor apple notebook to run state of the art professional level software, I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't run at all.
Oh, I understand. I do run professional software on my ibook even though the performance isn't fantastic. I'm patient enough to wait a little while for renders and what not. I was thinking about getting the production bundle with the education discount, but will wait to see if motion will be usable for me. The previous version of final cut pro, dvd studio pro, after effects, etc. all run good enough for me to enjoy them on this system. Was just hoping if I got the production bundle I would be able to at least use motion. That's all.

normally apple put in a block on systems that dont match the spec: ichat, fcp, dvd sp all use it...
people always release hacks to get round this, but since A) its illegal and B) it sucks to run software sub-spec... I wouldn't recommend it
