[G4] RE: one more question-audio

Hi Dan -

I hesitate to ask but since you're a self professed Mac newbie....   Are you aware that the G4 Mac you have, probably has a built in sound card that is adequate for all sorts of audio input including microphones? At least for home recordings. I'm not at all suggesting it's studio quality but it does a pretty good job of handling audio input.

Of course if you are an audiophile you can spend gazillions on high quality AD conversion cards.

Long ago I stuck a 500 MB stick of memory in to bring my total to 704 MB. That's been quite adequate for operating with OS X 10.3.9, Photoshop, and audio programs all at the same time.

G4 400MHz AGP 704 MB.
