Here's his input: It would run better on a Powerbook with a similar processor speed, for example 1.33 Ghz Powerbook G4. GB requires certain hardware features that runs better on a Powerbook that a iBook simply doesn't support (L3 Cache, higher front side bus, faster RAM).<DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"><DIV><DIV> <SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><DIV>Diana Dominguez</DIV><DIV><A href="mailto:ddwriter@sbcglobal.net">ddwriter@sbcglobal.net</A></DIV><DIV>You only live once, but you do it right, once is enough! - Mae West</DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"></SPAN> </DIV><BR><DIV><DIV>On Nov 9, 2006, at 6:47 PM, <A href="mailto:gooddog@interlync.com">gooddog@interlync.com</A> wrote:</DIV><BR class="Apple-interchange-newline"><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">Hello, folks;</DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; min-height: 14px; "><BR></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">I have an iBook with these specs</DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; min-height: 14px; "><BR></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">iBook G4, 1.2 GHz, 512 L2 Cache, 1.25 GB memory, 60 GB harddrive.</DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; min-height: 14px; "><BR></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; min-height: 14px; "><BR></DIV><DIV style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; ">and am going to be giving this to a friend's 14 year old so he can use it mainly for GarareBand.<SPAN class="Apple-converted-space"> </SPAN>Has anyone used GB much on an iBook like this one?
