Aside from workflow problens (wolf - you couldn't be more right!), don't forget tebop is using Poser 6. Which means no multithreading, a 2 GB limit - it's a pure 32 bit app, not a large address aware app - and of course, the Mac does not support that /3G switch, that's a Windows option.
A 4 year old G5 is slow indeed. But Poser 6 is about the same age. I wouldn't expect major speedups from a modern multicore machine, be it a Mac or a PC.
As for "slow machines" and what you can do with them, look up the user "flak" in the galleries. Those Bryce scenes were made on a Pentium III with 320 MB of RAM! Patience and a good workflow is what made those extraordinary scenes.
