Re: How big is your mac? (and other computer looping questions)



Hello All,

I use Cubase 4.0 on a Mac Mini it's been very reliable. Occasional 
problems but otherwise just great. Having software usually doesn't cause 
problems & since I'm not sure why you'd be running a browser or email prg 
while performing so I doubt it will make any difference.
