I have been waiting for a couple of months now to see what is best for me to buy in the Powerbook line. Making music is something I want to experiment with, it will not be my main thing to do.
I have been thinking of getting a 12" PB, and a 17" flat panel display. 60 Gigs hard drive, max Ram. Should this serve me well? 800 Firewire not a big deal? Gigabit Ethernet not a big deal? Thinking of buying Live, Reason, and Oxygen or Edirol, as was suggested. As always, thanks in advance for your wisdom. charlie |

I think the 12" powerbook will serve you well. However, I strongly recommend that you take the 15" 1GHZ Superdrive into consideration. More money but I think you'll be happy with what you get. The bigger monitor, the faster processor, the level 3 cache which I think is quite a big deal, the ability to burn DVD:s for backup. 800 Firewire is not a big deal at this point but who knows what products this will open up for in the future! Gigabit ethernet is not a big deal at all unless you already have a gigabit powered computer that you'll network with. But then that is very nice!
I think the 15" is quite a lot more bang for the buck. In any way, your laptop will work great. Just make sure to max out the RAM and to run an external drive for audio! Good luck! |
