 <<...Question: anybody have experience with PC laptops for music?  Would 
want
to
 use at least ReBirth on it and get quality audio out; little concern about
 MIDI.  Or: can someone point me to a list where I might get answers?
 Thanks to all....David Myers >>

First, I must tell you that I'm a Computer Dealer for 'the roof over me 
head
and some grub day job'.  Any decent Windows Laptop/Notebook will work just
fine.  I personally use a CTX Pentium 233 MMX for music on a daily basis.  
It
has a good sound chipset and (like no other laptop I'm aware of) a built-in
Midi port.  No problems, no complaints with Re-Birth, Sound Forge, 
Cakewalk,
Cubase, etc.  I sell most brands of laptop, but the CTX is the real "bang 
for
the buck" machine".   If you're seriously looking, check out my website:
http://www.handtech.com/tcweb/Reiter  Because of licensing agreements, you
won't find any CTX's there.  E-mail me for prices on those and I'll get you
the best deal I can, (wholesale + 10%).  I apologize for the crass
commercialism of this message...  Keep on keepin on...Keep on keepin 
on...Keep
on keepin on... two, three, four...(now bring in the TR909) ;)
