unsupported Aperture

Has anyone seen a workaround for installing Aperture on an older machine?
iBook G4 with 768ram.

There is a hack floating around that allows Aperture to be installed on unsupported hardware, however I'd recommend strongly against it. Aperture is very demanding and I found it too slow and cumbersome even for my G5 - I'd only recommend it to professional, full-time photographers who need to manage hundreds of new images *every single working day*.

A temporary solution

If you always are looking for installing Aperture in your 768Mb of RAM G4 iBook, I explain how to do the intallation with a small hardware configuration :

But, as symphonix said, Aperture is a gib RAM and CPU consuming application.
