It will run. It might be limited when it comes to how many instruments you can use, but it'll run. Also, with a 30GB drive, make sure you have a lot of space available because Garage Band is huge. If I'm remembering correctly it takes up about 3GB.

Right. Everything else should run. His computer wouldn't have come with a superdrive anyway.

Sorry, I thought it meant 600mHz or higher, but apparently that only applies to G3s

Take a look at this thread (http://www.icompositions.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=645). It's pretty interesting
