[microsound] mac osx -> linux?



hi microsounders,

i'm considering a switch from mac os to linux as i need a new labtop...
currently using rme fireface 400, cubase sx, logic pro, max msp, ableton
live, soundhack, cecilia...
running on my 1.25 ghz powerbook g4.

do you have any suggestions regarding hardware (i guess you can run run any
os on any machine nowadays? simultaniously?)
will my worktime switch from musicmaking to fixing software/hardware
problems?
links to linux audio forums are very welcome, and advice on new linux
software and running my current software on linux.

anyone done the switch?
(rumours are that audio on linux grow quite fast...)

i'm doing it to save money now and in the future (on hardware and software
updates...)
but a little concerned with time and the tools...

thanks in advance.

kind regards,
eske
