Hi everyone!
I'm so happy that I have found this community to help me in my choice!!!
So I'm actually a pc user but my laptop is getting really old and waiting for is retirement and since apple have come up with ilife recently I have been very attracted to mac.
The ilife suite have caugth my attention and mostly because of garage band. So I've been surfing around reading reviews and went to the mac reseller to ask questions. I know the reputation of the mac (user friendly, more turned on digital lifestyle etc....) and my choice of switching is almost done but I've got some questions for you guys before.
1- Is it true that an ibook is tougher than a powerbook?
2- Does an ibook will be fully fonctionnal with garage band (the reseller told me that he might be hard for it to support more than 4 instruments)?
3- Does virtual pc or office will be able to work correctly on an ibook (Actually I am not planning to buy virutal pc soon, but as a switcher I am considering it as a possible option if I can't have every softwares that I owned on pc or if it will cost too much to buy it on mac)?
4- If I max out the ram on a Ibook did i will be able to run apps as smooth (or almost) as I could do on a powerbook?
I forgot, I'm looking for a powerbook 12" without superdrive or an ibook 14" with the 40 gig hardrive.
I'm waiting for your answers and thank's in advance for helping me in my process!!!
