No disrespect intended, at all. Although I don't like being called ridiculous, I'll just grin and bear it. I didn't state you were ridiculous, just the "part" about "It's
simpler than buying a car by a long shot."
When you take into account the common commodity that a vehicle is, then
compare that to the highly specialized need that an audio dedicated laptop
represents, I don't think so.
My point is this: When you take into account the law of averages, it
becomes quickly apparent that the needs of the many far and away out weigh the
few. Musicians/DJs/Sound Engineers that require or choose to use laptop
computers are indeed the few as compared to the countless numbers of
laptop users whose needs are fully met by the typical configuration of
commercial computers. The manipulation of the BIOS is also not something that
you "choose" or "pick" like an item on a diner menu at your favorite restaurant.
Most computer users that have been using computers everyday for the last 10
years have merely "heard" of the BIOS at best. Until you have a NEED to
learn about such, there is positively no need to become in anyway familiar
with such.
As far as Google is concerned, try researching a car purchase as opposed to
the highly specialized computer needs of the members of this group from a dead
roll. That should take about 3 seconds to put in perspective whether you are a
member of this group or not.
Music dedicated computers and typical commercial computers with respect to
their set up and configuration is like comparing East to West. There is none.
The knowledge as to their non surface level set up and configuration is anything
but common or simple and that's just the software aspect.
Sincerely & RESPECTFULLY my friend, encouraging entry level and
even moderately advanced computer literate musicians to do some "simple" online
research in order to set up there own music dedicated computers will
yield MUCH frustration to say the very least. Even if they have a
very accurate understanding of their OS and hardware needs. There are so many
more specifics involved.
