macbook or mb pro for recording usb keys and guitar

[l4t13]

Im going to be recording some keyboard (through usb) and some guitar and bass guitar onto my laptop.

question is, will a macbook handle this, or should i invest in the pro.

i will probably just be using garage band and other free/cheap apps.

the mac IIci could handle that. recording is more of a throughput concern, not a CPU one. use an external firewire drive for recording the audio and you'll be fine.
