SDII *DOES* have the 2gb size limit.
SDII(extended) does not.

you will definately want more than 128 ram. dont buy memory from Apple...buy from 3rd party such as crucual, etc...exact same memory for half the price

Well the SDII in Spark doesn't have the limit.  It must be "extended" but it is not labeled as such.

are you recording stereo or split mono?

Well I'll start at 256 and then upgrade later (when I have the money)

Last question... What's the difference between a G4 and G3 ?

edit: nevermind. I guess its a new processor. Any truth to the rumour that it gets longer battery life?

G3 should yield better battery life, but the G4s have higher capacity batteries.

And do yourself a favor and get at least 512mb now.

Not bad at all, but I need to wait a little bit for the wife to get over the $800 I just spent ;)

I read on an ebay auciton where the seller said that the G4 can't be formatted as a dual-boot w/ os9 and os10.  Can anyone confirm this?  I've been thinking of getting an ibook or powerbook, too.  thanks

But it runs classic mode if need be. No dual boot needed. It will run your OS9 programs.  But as Scott said, why not just run OSX I can't go back to OS9

Besides, complaining that it wont boot os 9 is like complaining the latest Dell wont boot Windows 3.1.
