Mac IBook vs XP Desktop

Ok, I have an XP Home desktop with 512mb of Ram, two hard drives...it's a decent machine to run Cubase SX 2.0 and my Tascam FW1884. Since it is Windows...this machine can be pretty unstable. Anyways, I wanted to a get laptop (Mac G4 IBook) to do some live recording and I was planning on getting a fast external firewire drive. Now here is my question.

Roland SPD-S/Compact Flash Card/Mac Software

Hi folks.

Today I will be receiving a brand spankin' new Roland SPD-S. This is a cool little percussion controller with onboard sounds and built-in ability to sample.

It also has expandability using a flash card. From what I understand you can bring in pre-recorded samples via the flash card.
