URGH: YOU HAD to compare reeds to Microsoft!!!!!!

Please, let's hope reed making never becomes as finnecky as Windows. Even Windows 7, which I like a lot and has improved its performance miles above previous editions is still more irritating than poison ivy on a bee sting when it decides to shut down as you're waking-it up from hibernation or decides to perform an update right in the middle of a presentation or decides to freeze for Devil only knows what reason!

STICK WITH MACINTOSH (that is Euro-style reed making [tongue] ) or go Linux if you can... I just wish the powerful music software were available on Linux.

------ REEDS -----
Since I've started gouging my cane thinner (0.57-8) my scrape has shortened drastically to the point I do almost pure French scrape. There's no way for me to know the life span because I don't play as much as before (45 minutes a day doesn't really count). But I do remember my Euro-American hybrid reeds (long-scrape but no windows, no hump) on 0.63mm gouge lasting months... of course, I would be practicing on 4-8 reeds while making more at the same time...
