hello list,
    My name's mike, I'm a new user here. I just read in mac addict about
xgrid and it caught my attention pretty fast... so of course I
downloaded and set up. I do however have one question,... is this
software only good for splitting the load of pre-designated tasks? or
can it be used to delegate workloads from other programs? like say I
was editing hours of video in Final Cut Pro, or another power hungry
program,,,, does this program have any applications for this? I
appologize in advance if this is a silly question, but like I said, I'm
fairly inexperienced with the material. thanks for any help you can
give. -Mike

Hi,

The basic answer is no, xgrid can't do anything with the workload of software packages like Final Cut Pro. The software needs to be xgrid-aware, so to speak - it would need to have been programmed with the ability to submit 'jobs' to an xgrid controller. Obviously since xgrid is so recent, FCP doesn't have that built into it, but maybe they'll add that in to future editions....
