We don't need a windoze vs Mac war here... I see them enough on every =
other
board I'm on (as an audio engineer). I'll just say that I have 4 =
computers
here- 3 PCs and 1 Mac. The Mac has just as many problems as the PCs =
ever
have (and more hardware issues).

All computers suck. For those of us that depend on them, they have a
tendency to die when we least want them to.... OS X is a great =
operating
system, but for audio work it is still a disaster. The best rigs still
require OS 9.2 or below. My PC took hours of work to strip out all the
stuff that Microsoft thinks you need...
