Hi,
I have a PowerBook G4 876Mhz Titanium that I bought in September of last year. I use it with an mbox and PTLE, as well as Reason, Live and a bunch of other audio stuff. My question is this: With Apple releasing new software and new hardware every month, is my PowerBook too old already? Do I need to upgrade if I want to use Logic Express or any of the more powerful plugins? Or is this machine a good one that will serve me for another year or more before it needs to be replaced. I'm seeing all these new G5's and aluminum 'Books and thinking I should've waited a little longer before I bought mine. Whadya think? -------------------- lushbudget productions, ltd.

Short answer: No!
A lot of pro musicians are using 450MHz and 550MHz Titaniums. Yours will still smoke the latest G4 iBooks and most iMacs. You need at least 512MB of RAM though. |
