I'm a P.C. user and have been all of my life. I am switching to make as I trying to start a company that will create music for its clients commercials, movies, etc.
Like I said, "I dont know MAC." If I were to get a Powerbook 15.2 in. with a 1.25G processor, 512RAM which I would plan to upgrade to 1G, and a 60Gig harddrive, would this be able to handle my music production needs. Also, it appears that the M-audio Firewire 410 is not the first choice of audio interface, so what would be an alternative for a notebook. Thanks a lot, Gavin |

Take a look at Apple's website under the Store link. There, if you scroll down a bit, you will find a red sticker that says "Save". Click that link and you gain access to Apple's Refurbished and Discontinued products! I bought a 12" powerbook (867Mhz and Combo drive) for $1283 after tax, and they all come with the exact same 1yr warranty and are eligible for Apple Care same as a brand new product! The deals here really can't be beat.
