The Logic Off Topic list

Oops, I forgot an important advice in my post below: Make sure you  
buy a lappy with enough USB ports! I'm working every day on an Apple  
Powerbook and it's a constant source of irritation having to swap USB  
cables all the time. The Logic dongle has to stay in one USB port all  
the time, then you have MIDI interface and eventual USB MIDI keyboard  
controllers, USB MIDI mixers etc. And of course the printer.

Also, Celeron based CPU have proven not good for audio work, but I  
guess you knew that ;-)
