I'm noticing that a lot of musicians are using PCs to record.
I've been, for a long time, considering purchasing either an Apple Ibook or a Powerbook to use for digital recording via a Tascam US428. I would, of course, have a separate, external hard drive to manage the recordings.
Regardless, are there any downsides to Apple laptops? Because I've been hearing a lot of hype about the Apples. For example, that wireless internet technology (Airport), and how it handles musical and visual applications really well. Or should I just shut up and stick with a Dell laptop (or any other laptop) and save a few hundred bucks (Apples are really expensive for not much umph) and get a better deal?
By the way, I'll be going to college in the fall, so I'm looking for a versatile 'puter; one to use for recording and for writing an essay the night before it's due.
