That would depend on which model iBook you are looking at..
Logic has a neat feature called 'freeze' which renders audio tracks so that the processing power used to run the tracks through effects or tracks that are virtual instruments wont be required. The biggest issue most people have with laptops and audio is that the hard disks are often much slower than desktop machines. That said, it depends on how many tracks you require and how long you are prepared to wait for rendering tracks when the processor gets a little clogged..
I run Logic on an upgraded G4/400 desktop (now 1.2gigs) and the machine is pretty bloody competent.
The trick is, lots of ram (768 or more to be serious) and a fast hard disk. The iBook will run a Firewire external at full speed which should give loads of tracks..
