No reason why not to. Although any notebook can be used, I recommend a

notebook with an AMD processor (as many otherwise excellent LADSPA

plugins have a specific issue with certain Intel based processors) that

has a built-in firewire interface that can bus-power. (Ask your vendor

if you don't know what this means). To this firewire interface, I would

probably attach a Roland FA-101 for a good

price/quality/linux-workability ratio. You would have to check Gentoo

how well Freebob is supported and perhaps wait a little, I know Ubuntu

support for Freebob is due this October.
