re: the good old Mac/PC question (was: looping observation)
some hate the question, but as Rick points out, times change and it
has to be reconsidered...

yes, the OS hardly ever crashes. only the apps sometimes do :-(
how about the apps on XP?

speed is reasonable and certainly not the cause. I suspect though
that RAM could be little...

rather strong arguments are that Logic is not updated for PC
quite some plugins are not available for Mac
there is a Nuendo crack for PC but not for Mac...
seems that latency is about equal... is it?
I am seriously thinking about getting a cheap PC for stage and leave
my loved Mac safely at home. Also because its usually a hassle to
keep switching things if you have only one computer, so the PC I
would only use for playing, hoping that it would be ready for it at
all times...
