PPC is officially on our supported list. Although it's possible for the occasional issue to pop in related to PPC support as I don't have a PPC machine in the office for testing.

I'm running Curse Client V4 on a Power Mac G4 PPC computer, and it works pretty well, except scrolling through the addon list is VERY slow and choppy.

Processor is 1 Ghz dual core with 1.5 Gb of ram.

@Ghettogreen: Go

I've heard this from multiple people, but I'm completely unable to reproduce it :(

I'll be trying to make sure the code behind there is as good as I can make it, however I know a lot of the CPU usage I see locally is due to the framework's drawing routines.
