FCP project file on an Intel and a G4 at DVinfo.net

What issues, if any, would there be in transferring a project created on an intel to a G4 and then back again? Even though both Macs are laptops, the media drives for each would also be different.

Thanks

As long as you're using the exact same version of FCP on both machines, you shouldn't have any problems.

You will have to deal with the inconvenience of reconnecting media since your drives are different, ergo the paths will be different.

Thanks for both of your responses. I didn't think it would be more than having to reconnect the media but wanted some confirmation.
