Re: vst rack

[RandomLFO@aol.com]

     This discussion makes me think of the Wavedigital Microwave PC. If 
you're not familiar with it, it is basically a PIII that will fit in the 
palm 
of your hand. They still have a pitcure of it in the lower left corner of 
thier Website, but I couldn't find any info about it. I did inquire about 
it 
this past spring. At that point, they were still selling it,               
   
          but it was kinda pricey. Who knows, maybe they will eventually 
drop 
the price of it.
