 can you guys help me out? should i stay with my ibook or should i switch to a powermac g4 dp? thanks. ill be using a tapco blend 16 and an mbox1 as well. my ibooks specs are: 1.33ghz 60gb HD and 1.5gbRAM, the powermac im looking at is pretty much the same except for the processor speed which is 1ghz but dual. thanks you guys, sorry if this may seem a no brainer to some of you guys kind of a newb

mariuo,
The PowerMac 1Ghz DP will work for you as a bit of a step up over the iBook. The iBook is portable, but the PowerMac, even though it is of a much older lineage at this point, has a faster system bus, faster hard drives (unless you have upgraded your stock one), more expandability and is capable of holding a larger amount of RAM. If it were me, I'd go for the swap. Just from expandability perspective (i.e., adding a new larger hard drive for nothing but my audio output). peace. -------------------- |
