Going Live, planning on using a powerbook live Options

[wixel]

Hi,

i'm a pc user. i compose all my tracks on a desktop with jeskola buzz (freeware - but damn good) Now, buzz is the most unstable program ever, so i can't use it live. (or hardly) i was thinking of converting it into samples/sequences and using it in ableton live. Since ableton works both on ordinary laptops and powerbooks, And powerbooks are more stable i was thinking of buying one.
After that i'm planning to learn to use logic. (which should be ok - i'm using pc for all my music needs over 5 years and i'm starting to know how to work with most programs)

So, is it worth it? Will the powerbook (just the 'cheapest' one, 1ghz/512ram/ you know the 12inch one) be good enough to perform live?

That's the main issue..

But i was wondering about this
And will it be good enough to record for example guitar? or do i need an extra audio interface? I'd also like to do live guitar processing.. is the latency not to big? does powerbook g4 support Asio?..

any any help is greatly appreciated!
