I'm looking at getting a LaCie external DVD burner to go along with my 450 mhz G4 Cube (old school, I know.) Anyhoo, LaCie suggested system requirements list a 500mhz or higher G4. Is that 50mhz gap really gonna cause me a problem?
 
it won't mean anything. if anything, you can probably make up any difference by having more RAM than what the requirements call for.

those requirements are pretty loose, and are based on what the company thinks is needed to run smoothly. not run at all, but run smootly. and smoothly is a very subjective term... whereas one of the LaCie engineers may get flustered if something doesn't happen in under x seconds, it might not bother you if it takes a bit longer, or if there's a slight lag.
