But maybe next year I can do it all on one intel cpu Mac? Hi, My understanding is that Apple does not allow OS X to run natively on a PC (for example, a Dell). It can be done via emulation, but given Logic's power requirements, that's not advisable. If it was me, I'd just save for the G5, so then everything will work at top speed for that machine, drivers will be available, and audio cards will work fine (mine does!). In my experience, when I try to save money like is described below, it ends up costing me a ton of money in the long run, and turns out to be a decision I regret. I'd rather have a system I can count on and depend on, even if it costs me more money, but that's just me. I hope this helps. Russ
