Re: Laptops -dedicated to music only?



There shouldn' be any, Andy, if I follow your bait here. :)  That mac/pc 
debate is tired and defunct. Any mac or pc with comparable RAM/CPU speed, 
similar apps/hardware and choice of I/O (firewire, etc) and duo core 
should 
be able to go head to head.  My only suspicion, as I've said before, is 
that 
maybe...maybe...macs are more stable because their OS evolution hasn't 
been 
so convoluted. But that is an assumption on my behalf. Not having a mac, I 
don't really know.
