Does Anyone Know How To Run Pt 6 With No I/o Box, Scared and lonely Options

[greatscott94]

I would like to know if there is a way to run PT 6 on my 12"PB without having an Mbox or 002.

My reason for asking is that I have recently purchased a 12" powerbook with 640 ram and I want to do some editing. My friends run a small studio and I want to help them out by doing some editing for them at my home, and being that I spent all my money on my computer I can't afford to buy an
I/O box. When I can I plan to buy the new digioo2 rack so I can use make use of the firewire connectivity. I don't want to buy an Mbox because I will need more than 2 ins if I plan on doing any mobile recording. I am not willing to use any other editing software, mainly because I was trained and am most familiar with PT, as well everyone I work with is using it and if we need to file share we need to be using the same format.

I would be more than happy using PT free for the time being but you need to boot up in OS 9 in order to use it and my PB can only boot in OS X. I thought this might be a problem wen I purchased my PB but Digidesign had already released PT 6 and I thought they would have released a free version by now. When I E-mailed Digidesign they told me they had nothing in the works. That was about a month ago.

If anyone has any solutions or comments for me it would be greatly appreciated. java script:emoticon(':)')
