OMG! ADK Quad Core is sweeeeeeet!

I finally switched over completely to the new ADK Quad Core machine (8GB RAM, 2 500gb HD, Window XP SP2). This machine is awesome! Plenty of little extras including a large amount of USB ports, Firewire, a great case that's easy to open and easy to remove boards if I want to. Plenty of room for expansion. To put it to the test I loaded Sonar with the scoring I've been doing with Garritan Personal Orchestra, loaded up NI B4 II, Electrik Piano, AND Akoustic Piano, Session Drummer 2 and added lots of midi and audio tracks. It didn't get bogged down at all - even with the NI hogs all playing parts! This machine is excellent and worth every penny of the 2200 I paid for it.

    My new Lap Top from ADK is Smoke'in, my first 2 mobile recording gigs paid for it. 24 tracks from the stage splitter box without a hicup or flinch. Top notch recording, great setup, with an RME FireFace 800 and 2 Presonus FS 8 channel preamps. This mobile rig ROCKS !!!

    I am very happy with my quad as well. How do you manage 8gb ram? Are you running 64 instead of 32?
