Protools, Tascam Us 428. And A Mac

Can I use ProTools with a Tascam US 428 and a PowerMac? If so, is ProTools ready for OS X?

I heard that in order to use ProTools, you have to also use DigiDesign hardware...so I am wondering if this is true...which means that I can't use my Tascam controller (US 428)??

Tascam Us 428 & Jag 10.2

Is the new OS X 10.2 compatible with the Tacam US 428'?

Ddr Ram

If the computer I am looking at comes with 256MB of DDR SDRAM, does that mean that it actually has 512MB of RAM because DDR RAM is double-sided?

New Power Mac G4 Line

Are the improvements worth the money for audio?

Specifically:

It seems that there are very good graphics improvements (from what were already exceptional), but budgetwise I don't need better graphics, but rather optimal audio functionality.

Also, a couple of questions...

1) The Xserve technology that I think all of the new G4's come with seems to be a server based advantage. I am somewhat of a novice. ...Was Apple trying to design a superpower machine for creative people (like me who wants to dedicate my machine to recording music) and therefore assumed that when you are recording that your machine is functioning as a server as opposed to a home computer?

2) Is the Mac® OS X version 10.2 “Jaguar” designed for tasks such as audio recording? Have there been some good reviews on this yet?
