Not helpful advice:

I suggest running IDL on the superior platform of the two that you have
available, namely on the Mac :-) Fast, no freezes and "Window" does what
it is supposed to. BTW, we did test a SGI vs G4 and obtained results
that are very, very close. Processing tests ran identically, and drive
performance was very close, too. Once there's a native OSX port of IDL,
even I will put OSX on my Mac.

Cheers,
Pavel
