Hi everyone,
i'm new in the forum and a prospective powerbook user, my dilemma is the 12" or 15" powerbook? I am aware of the differences (the 15" has more screen res, 1Gb ethernet, up to 2Gb of ram, pcmcia slot, 800 firewire) The only reason i would prefer the 15" is the pcmcia slot since i already own the exellent RME multiface card, the other options do not tempt me that much, since i can still use an external monitor with the 12" at any resolution. If i get the 12" (with 1.25Gb ram) would i be able to use the MOTU 828 (mkI), in the specs of the card i read that the connection is with standard 1394 FireWire. Has anyone tried this with the 12" powerbook ? thanks in advance zak |

if you like the RME so much, then why do you want a motu? by the way - what's the deal with the ins and outs on the RME: how many? do you use many plug-ins with it, and if so, how does your present computer fare?
cheers ju PS my mac guy said he wouldn't ever recommend the 12" powerbooks, and iBooks neither. he said they're just crap. but the 15" get his thumbs up a bit higher... cheers again! |
