Well, Protools is great for doing audio edits, but you probably want
something a bit easier:
Spark ME (http://www.tcworks.de) free version, Bias PEAK
(http://www.bias-inc.com/) there are demos to download.
You can probably do all right from a mixer with phono inputs to the
mic input, if your Powerbook has it, or use a USB audio device
(http://griffintechnology.com, http://www.m-audio.com).
