    Hey,

    I use my PC for recording music, but i've come to the conclusion that i'm going to need something a little more portable to record jamming sessions with my band!

    So i'm looking for a decent laptop, i don't play games etc, all i need is a decent cpu and ram(min 500mb) that can handle the music and applications i'll be running and then on top of that general internet usage etc... No need for a huge HD or amazing graphics card!

    I was thinking of an ibook/powerbook but they're a little on the expensive side...

    Also something that i can pay for through finance would be good..

    AFAIK the ESB charge very high rates of interest so be very careful :rolleyes:
