Re: The ThinkPad T60p - On the Way!

I'll be using, EnergyXT (VST host), Mobius, PSP84, PSP42, Pluggo, Antares 
Filter, Antares Kantos, and a whole slew of other VST effects.  I wish 
this 
thing would make tea of coffee for me in the morning!

Right now, my only potential concern with the unit is the soundcard (which 
is my concern with any notebook), but I will likely just use my 
SoundBlaster 
Audigy 2 ZS Notebook, plugged into the PCMCIA slot. But I will try out the 
existing soundcard and load the Universal ASIO Driver - 
http://www.asio4all.com/  I wish they allowed a custom configuration of 
the 
soundcard.

For that kind of dosh, we expect to wake you up in the morning with a cup 
of 
tea as well. Sounds grand. What are the software programs you intend to 
run? 
With that kind of memory and processor power, you whould have zero latency 
difficulties and and glitching. Sorry if I missed you mentioning this 
before.

Controller?

Well, I finally got around to ordering a new notebook for music 
performance 
application (just tonight). This thing should kick royal butt, and rightly 
so for $3500. It just came out recently and has the new Intel duo core 
processor in it. I custom configured the whole thing with the sales rep on 
the phone. Here it is:

Processor: Intel Core Duo T2500 2 GHz ( Dual-Core)
RAM: 2 GB

Bluetooth, IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11g
Optical Storage: DVD¦RW (¦R DL) / DVD-RAM - plug-in module
Display: 14.1" TFT active matrix SXGA+ (1400 x 1050) - 24-bit (16.7 
million 
colors)
Graphics Controller: ATI MOBILITY FIRE GL V5200 - 256 M

...etc

Can't wait to get this thing up and running!
