well... i need some major help. i have been making music on my piece of crap pc for a couple of years. it is really slow, so i don't have many options as to what i can run on it. anyway... i'm looking to get serious about the whole music making thing and know that MAC is the way to go. i know some basics of what i want, but don't know enough about macs or making REAL music using REAL equiptment. so... on to what i know i want:
g4 laptop 12" or 15" -i need a separate hard drive for my music. my wife intends to use this as her computer for her job too. i know ABOUT firewire, but don't know anything about it. i do know that i can only get firewire 400 on the 12 and 15". i have some synths, a 12 track mixer, a drum machine that i will adding to (of course) and would like to get to start really using them. anyway, i don't know what's available as far as specs go or what i want/need to get in order to sucessfully create music. so, as you can see... i need a lot of help here. i would like to make this purchase sooner than later and really appreciate your time. thanks |
