If you buy a newer Mac you can always have multiple boot drives and take advantage of both OS X and the better legacy stuff. There are older G4s selling in the neighborhood of $1000 and G3s going for $700-800. OS X is fine and dandy, but OS 9 is perfectly suitable for a variety of music applications (and also remember that not all software is OS X compatibly anyway). It's what I'm using on a G4/500 and I'm not complaining. -- ______________________________________________________________ Richard Zvonar, PhD (818) 788-2202 http://www.zvonar.com http://RZCybernetics.com http://www.cybmotion.com/aliaszone http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=rz
