Hi Charlie,
Don't know if this applies to you, but a musician friend of mine uses
a mac book and found that he needed to upgrade to the pro because he
needs the firewire for music audio production. I don't know much more
than that.
Good luck in your quest.

Hey girls and guys
Hope you are all doing well. I have a bit of a situation and I
wouldn't mind
some thoughts if you have the time.
I am moving onto campus for uni next year, meaning my imac is
staying at
home, and my laptop is going to uni. The only thing is my laptop is
a PC and
I can not live without a mac (can you say material girl?). I really
only use
the PC for Jaws and zoomtext when voiceover and the mac can't do
something I
need (like OCR - i hate the software you can get for OCR on a mac)
and a few
other things. So I am on my mac the majority of the time.
The thing is I don't like living without either of the operating
systems, so
I thought, why not upgrade to a new macbook and do the bootcamp thing.
I am wondering - would the low end macbook model be able to cope with
widnows and potentially run zoomtext and JAWS at the same time, plus
any
other applications I should need at the same time? (I mean the low end
aluminium one, not the white one by the way). Or should I just get
the top
end one?
I'm kind of thinking about a macbook pro. It has the potential to
cope, as
well as last forever if I need it to, but gosh its a big wod of money.
Thoughts anyone?
