First off you can no longer buy a new PowerPC (G4) laptop from Apple. All new
Apple products run with intel processors. As far as VoiceOver performance is
concerned all new Apple laptops as well as the rest of the product line will
perform fine. So now you are simply looking at the various models. As a
general rule the bigger the screen the hight the price in portables.
The prices range form $1099 for a 13" screen to $2799 for a portable with a
17 inch monitor. Of course you can add all sorts of extras and bring that
price up quite a bit more.

Hi folks,
This is actually a two part question, since voice over does not work with
pro-tools.
If I can get both parts answered here terrific, if not I can ask the pro
tools variation on that list.
In terms of a mac laptop, which is best, by which I mean most stable from a
voice over standpoint with at least some of the basics functional?
I know or as of last report, knew that a real word processor was not as of
yet an option, but in terms of things like browsing, skype, and the like,
what is the best lap top door. Can anyone give a rough estimate of its
cost too?
By contrast, if one wants to run pro tools from a laptop, what is the last
best mac option here?
A g4 ibook perhaps? one still able to run os 9.22?
Same price idea appreciated.
Please note, i am *only* interested in laptop options, nothing else for
this line of questioning.
Thanks all around,
