Just out of curiosity, why did you choose the Mac, given that you had no previous experience with it? Did you get information from somewhere to indicate that Logic Audio would run more reliably with the Mac? well the original Notator on Atari , which was written by gerd and chris in the 80s happened to be written on a Motorola chip, which was also the Apple CPU, so porting it from Atari to Mac was maybe easier. It is only very recent, that appls get ported over to win. like protools/logic....... too bad the guys from cool edit pro dont rewrite the code for mac. ciao
