itll be just fine, i run that on my alu macbook, although mine is a 2.4ghz model, i cant see your mac not being able to run it
 
Oh it can run it. I'm sure of it. I guess I didn't make myself clear. I think I wonder is there anything I won't be able to accomplish at all with the Macbook due to firewire or another disadvantage. I am aware that there are many peripherals out there in usb instead of firewire. Just wondering will there ever be something I cant do, and I don't mean time. I mean literally not be able to accomplish.

Hope this helps?
 
You will be fine.

If you were working with pro video applications, like FCP, then I'd recommend the MBP for the better video card and firewire.

The MacBook is just fine for audio work. The biggest problem for me would be the lack of firewire, as my sound card is firewire only (M-Audio Project Mix). However, since you do not yet have a sound card, then you will be just fine, as there are certainly USB sound cards for you to purchase.
 
oooo lol..i get it now, but yea, i record with midi, regualr microphones with phantom, and guitar and keyboard inputs and other perhiprials, and its never given me any problem. Most of the interfaces now a days come with usb and FW. almost anything you buy has the capabilities to do both, and besides there are always more and more usb interfaces coming out. The apple website has some good ones, as well as anything from tascam is really good.
 
It's going to run great. Even my 1.83 CD WhiteBook handled Logic well. RAM is more important than CPU for Logic.
