Re: Audio Production Laptop
The new macbooks don't even have firewire until you get into the pro range.

It has Intel chipset, fast processor etc. and you can install Ubuntu-Studio on it with bootcamp. The internal audio hardware is pretty good, at least on MacOSX side there is no such thing as latency in the Logic Studio (Logic Pro 8). I have not tested Ubuntu Studio with it (the Ubuntu Studio is on a desktop PC). The fan noise is low and in general the laptop is very nice. The new model should be even nicer. It is manufactured from aluminum block with machining - awesome! I am pretty happy with the Mac hardware, and I think it would worth to spend the little premium also for a Linux machine to get the Apple HW. The Macbook is quite reasonably priced. http://www.apple.com/macbook/ Best Regards, Karoliina -- Ubuntu-Studio-users mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users
