Audiophiles Rejoice
The new 17-inch PowerBook also includes built-in optical digital audio input and output for connecting to devices such as decks, receivers, digital instruments and 5.1 surround sound systems. Because optical digital audio transmits data as impulses of light rather than electrical signals, it enables true, noise-free, pristine sound — eliminating troublesome ground loops and ensuring higher audio and signal quality.

A live concert to me is exciting because of all the electricity that is generated in the crowd and on stage. It's my favorite part of the business, live concerts.

Any work on supposed max bit/sample rate? Also, anyone know if the opticals they introduced in the G5 towers were bit-perfect?

I'm going to assume that the PB 17 is going to be the same as the PM G5:  bit perfect at 24/48 but resamples anything above that.  I'd love to be proven wrong though. ;)
