I live pretty close to an Apple Store, and I've downloaded the demo version of Ableton Live to try out on a machine in the store before (when I was looking at the 1.67 GHz PowerBooks). I figure I'll drop by the store this weekend, download Live onto an Intel iMac, and see what happens (i.e. if Live works with Rosetta). I'll report back after testing this out...

There's one about 20 minutes from my house and I considered doing the same. But the notebooks aren't shipping till February so they wont have them instock yet.
The iMacs apparently are available via the website but I doubt they will be in stock in the retail stores already.
I would atleast call first.

Exactly... can't someone who visits the Mac Expo do this for us?

working on them....and gave up.
it's intel all the way now. g5 is IBM.
i do believe this macbook is an interim machine though.
