Buy ram and hold off on the Powerbook. I agree that you should have 512 in general and if you are doing video, you should have 768 - to 1 gig. It will make a HUGE difference. My DP533 still kicks ass on DV footage in FCP because I have a gig of…

Consider that your iMac has a faster hard drive and that some things on a Powerbook will be slower as a result of the 4200 rpm hard drive. However, you can replace it with a 7200 rpm IBM drive. All else considered, the Powerbook should be fast…

Are there battery repair options or Extended warranties for the Rio, Dell, or Naptster players? Most of these companies use the same or similar batteries, but their products are a year or 2 behind Apple so there isn't any quality history to com…

I have had a lot of success using apps with a 733Mhz minimum on my Dual 533. Maybe the previews will be a little glitchy, but the DVD will come out fine. I run Digital Performer on mine as well, so I don't see why Garage Band wouldn't work. H…
