I'm very interested in learning about Linux. Actually my audio PC died
last summer when I was in the middle of installing a debian build and
since then I've been mac only. Greg House made me aware of
http://www.yellowdoglinux.com - linux for mac - and I'm just hoping the
Yellow Dogs won't bite my powerbook to death ;-) Or maybe software
updates will make me a happy OS X camper, don't know yet. Lots of
interesting things are going on this summer - Logic 7 with "elastic
audio" is around the corner and Plastikman has got some personalized
software, with "a special MIDI output feature", from Ableton. Ableton
that is also deep down in Altivec optimizing their code right now. So
just about anything can happen in a near future. Maybe it will be
enough to stay with OS X ;-D
