Powerbook is a mac right?
I have a friend who sold their mac for a pc because the mac wasn't living up to expectations for making music with.

that's bollocks. PowerBooks running OS X 10.1 are by far the superior computer to use.
But if you've got X 10.0 you're fucked.
Just recently all the big companies have brought out OS X versions of their apps, like Reason, Cubase, Ableton Live. And Mac OS X is THE stable system. I know, my Dad has a Powebook running it and the system hasn't crashed yet (in five months!) He doesn't use music apps but that shows that the system is very stable.

G4 powerbook is fucken wicked .. tho i'd be somewhat reluctant getting a loan for something like that .. what soundcard are you thinking of using?
Its tricky .. technology always gets better etc. Only concern re: powerbook is (depending how serious you are .. can have a lot of add on costs .. but i guess that goes part n parcel with portables). such as the aforementioned soundcard, RAM, hard drive (tho a firewire @ 7200 harddrive might be the go ..
it seems strange that there's not more firewire external audio devices like MotU828 ..
anyway .. i'm rambling.
go nuts.
oh .. would you get protools, or do you already have it .. coz, i'd probably recommend you use Logic Audio or Cubase (or Sonar - tho i don't know much about it) .. ? Cubase SX looks pretty fucken wicked actually ..
