Is there such a thing? I have the opportunity to pick up a G3/500Mhz. laptop for beer money and I'm wondering if I could press it into service as a simple mobile recording system.
Thanks for any help!

Your not going to do too much audio recording with a G3 laptop anyway... In which case were talking efficient music apps, of which, for a G3 there is only one... Reason 2.5 Tracktion 2 is OSX anyway... You could barely run OSX on a G3, if at all...kodama wrote:Reason is not a host and won't record audio (and might be dead?).DHR53 wrote:Reason 2.5 would run fine!
Reason will still run on OS9...
