Purchased iLife 04’. Could not wait to play with all the new tools especially GarageBand. Was disappointed that no keyboards are available from my local Apple store. I was told there is a 6-week wait. Discovered that my G4 iBook could not handle the demands of GarageBand. Bummer. Sold the G4 iBook on eBay and purchased a 12” powerbook with a superdrive. The powerbook is great. It’s got the power to meet my GarageBand needs. I’ve owned a 15” Titanium in the past. However, for me the 12” format is the best. It’s just easy to carry around yet has more then ample power for my needs. In the last two days I managed to pull all my videos from a DirecTV Tivo box. Cancelled the service but wanted to save the accumulated videos. The PowerBook with iMovie and a Cannon ZR45 did the work without a hitch. Look forward the challenge of transforming these into DVD’s.
