Hello all,
I have decided to kick the PC habit and migrate to a mac for my audio work. The trouble is the macs are rather expensive. Yes, yes i know you get a lot more stablility, compatablility etc with a mac but unfortunately my back manager does not see things my way. I am looking to buy a refurbished titanium powerbook g4/500 wit a 10 GB hard drive and 128 MB RAM. Are these specs too low to run say digital performer? Do you recommend a used laptop to sequence midi and record audio with? Spce is an issue with me so i try and save it where i can. I appreciate your input

sounds like you were running in low power consumption mode throttling the cpu down. I am using a 3 year old G4 466, 1.5GB of RAM, Panther, Logic Audio Plat 6.x and get around 32 tracks of audio (use freeze tracks for more) incl. FX.
Too bad, hope your next experience will be better.
