I noticed that when I watch HD TV shows downloaded from iTunes, that there seems to be some minor video choppiness.
Is this system too slow for HD video? I checked the Apple site and existing...

If it says g5, you can't do it..
Go to Apple menu -> About This Mac.
If you are indeed running a G5 and not an Intel, you are out of luck when it comes to Netflix.

An Intel processor can not be installed in the G5 model.
The "equivalent" of the iMac G5 is the new iMac in either 21.5" or 27Sorry, Leopard 10.5.8 is the highest possible for the G5.
That has the Intel processor.
