[QUOTE="Crubbish, post: 926604, member: 127504"] Hi I have been a windows user before now but after using a Mac at my school with logic I am extremely interested but I do have a few questions that i have been struggling to find answers to. I am primarily interested in a MB but might consider a MBP if i think it will make a huge difference. I mainly want to use it for logic express 9 1. What sort of processor speeds should I go for I mean is the difference between a 2.0 GHz or 2.4 GHz really substantial. 2. Is 2 gigs of ram enough or should I spring for 4. 3.Most of the books I have read clearly state that 2 HDD’s are a must for audio but the only way I can see that possible is a MP(well out of my price range). If I were to export completed projects to an external HDD would that make it still work well. 4.Is it possible to get 2 screens running from one MB (1 displaying the same as the MB screen and one displaying something else) 5. Are there any decent docking stations? 6. If I could afford it would an I Mac be significantly better but the portability would be good 7. It is a good idea to not connect it to the internet to stop it getting clogged up? I plan on keeping it for a long time and don’t want it to get clogged up meaning it becomes less good for my audio needs 8. I have herd about dual boots but again I am really worried about performance dose it take away from the performance sorry if it seems like a bit of a rant interested in any help out there. thank you for you time [/QUOTE]
