Cheap Chick Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 I'm on the hunt for a recent Mac laptop (1-2 years old) either powerbook or iBook - specifically for the purpose of recording music. I figure the best way to find one is to ask the people I know... so that's why I'm posting this.If you or anyone you know is selling one, I would love to know. Thanks,Pamdimeboxband (at) gmail (dot) com

mathman Posted October 21, 2006 Posted October 21, 2006 You said 1 - 2 years old so I assume you mean a G4 but do make sure you get a G4 model. The G3's are really too slow. Try to get a gig of ram in it. Makes a big difference.

The best and most reasonable deal of all may be to go with a new (smaller) notebook:http://www.apple.com/macbook/macbook.htmlHas the power and memory to do anything you'd want to do.
