[DM-MUG] Article: What Snow Leopard Broke

[Alan Maupin]

I'm not sure what to make of this 64 bit vs 32 bit operating mode in  
Snow Leopard.  I have a 2009 MacPro Quad Core with 8 GB of RAM and I  
just ordered the upgrade to Final Cut 7.    My concern is;  how to get  
Final Cut to use all 8 GB's of RAM.  Is there a secret keystroke on  
boot to make Final Cut use all resources optimally.
