While MacENC will run on your older slower Powerbook G4, I really recommend a Macbook[pro] for MacENC. You can try out the MacENC demo version on your Mac (requires OS X 10.4 or later).
Both GPSNavX and MacENC can send the NMEA data to an autopilot to navigate to the active waypoint. So GPSNavX might be a better solution if you choose to stick with your Powerbook G4.
Make sure Belkin offers an OS X driver for the serial adapter you have. Generally I recommend the Keyspan adapter for Mac OS X.
