ibook for remote recording

Anyone has tried any of these? You can buy a new one for about $999, which is cheap for macs. I have a G4 desktop which I use with Digital performer but I've been wanting a lap top to do remote recording and bring it back to my desktop. I just want to make sure there aren't any issues I should know about before I spring for one.

Need advice on my future remote rig

I'm in the process of spec-ing a budget remote recording rig. I want to go with Pro Tools and I want to be able to record 16 channels simultaneously. I plan on running the Digi002 rack with a 1.5ghz Powerbook using the 002's ADAT input for my 8 additional channels. The idea of a small format digital mixer with an ADAT output is appealing but may be cost prohibitive.
