I have a MBP with 4 gigs of RAM and I'm curious how well Logic Studio will run on it? I'm just getting into recording and I wanna get away from Garageband. I've heard that Logic's interface is easy to use and has a very minimal learning curve. Will it run smooth with no latency? Also what would be a good external HDD to use with it? Since it takes up 70+ gigs of HDD space hah.

Fixed.
 
Huh? Garageband is extremely easy, but it doesn't have very many options. I've read that Logic is a lot easier to use than other professional programs. Why did you change my post?

Your sentence made no sense by saying Logic had an easy interface, and a small learning curve, because it doesn't. Logic is quite a complicated program while Garageband is the program you described.
 
Logic works absolutely splendidly on any SR MBP. Particularly with 4 gigs of ram. I am using Logic + Reason + Kontakt + several other CPU intensive plug-ins on both my Merom & Penryn (2.4 & 2.5).
Tbh, it's somehow almost as powerful as my eight core MacPro w/ 10 gigs!!!!!
