Hi folks,
In regard to machine speed, is buying THE fastest Tibook going to give me a noticeable performance improvement? I think that there is about a $400 difference between the fastest machine out there and the second fastest, and I was wanting to know if the extra money is well spent. Am I going to want to get a Gig of RAM or is less than this quite OK? I know RAM is quite cheap now, but I am wanting to more know if a lot of RAM is a big help or not. Thanks, charlie |

Thanks guys.
So 512MG of RAM would be sufficient but 1 gig would not at all hurt. And, since neither one of you mentioned it, machine speed, say between 800 Mgz and 1GHz should also not make any noticeable difference? Thanks to everyone on this list that has been so helpful to me over the last several weeks. I wish you all the best in the coming year. And I hope that you give the world some beautiful music. Regards, charlie |
