Don,

I've been using a 12" (1.33 GHz) iBook G4 with Finale 2006 for about six weeks. I considered the 14" but chose the 12" for quality of screen image and portability.

I use an external keyboard for easy access to the number pad, page up/down etc. I prefer a mouse to the trackpad. 

I added 1GB RAM for a total of 1.5 which helps with GPO but I'll bet this is one of the limitations with large scores on a iBook. 

I downloaded the Screen-Spanning Doctor so I could use a 17" monitor (1280 x 1024 vs 1024 x 768) for page layout. I think the iBook will handle a larger monitor but you should check the Screen-Spanning Doctor forum to be sure.

Hope this helps.

Anyone using Finale '05 or '06 with an iBook?  Pros, cons, other thoughts?

Thanks in advance,
