hi everyone, i currently have a PPC power mac G5 which is fine except i need Intel machine to download the programs i want. I come from a music background so i have software like logic and reaper etc. so it has to be powerful, in my spare time i am a mobile DJ so i want to use either a macbook air or macbook pro not sure which one, this will be running traktor software but on top i also want a mac capable of heavy music editing which a macbook is not. so pretty much i have to choose between a very dear power mac intel or again a dear imac. i will be selling the current powermac for about £300-£350 and i have about £150 savings. which only leaves me the option to go second hand. So really what i am asking you is do i get a macbook pro or air for mobile djing and also do i get a powermac intel or an i mac for the studio side of things?

thanks in advance

Try a Mac Pro, burn your music to disc and see if the MBP can then handle it.
