I agree that this debate is outdated...

Sorry.

Everything is good these days. That's why people use it. Mac, PC, factory built, home made, Sonar, Pro Tools, Logic - who cares? It's all going to crash from time to time anyway!

It's a matter of preference. I can buy my self a PT HD rig on a Mac Pro, but I don't want to. So I won't.

But in this day and age, there's nothing that is better than something else IMHO. It comes down to what you prefer.

Facepalm. I use a computer. A Mac.

I play a Les Paul not a custom two-piece maple top attached with ultra-strong Franklin Titebond 50 glue to a non-chambered mahogany body equipped with vintage Kluson-style tuners with pearloid tulip buttons. 

It's not my job to worry about the merits of Titebond 50 - I'll leave that to the factory employees, me I have music to write. They do their job, I do mine, and as long as the glue works and the guitar sounds good, I'll not argue about its merits over those of the new Titebond 50 HV, even if the HV is 3 to 5 times thicker.


Agreed that the PT on Mac paradigm is becoming a thing of the past - there's many alternatives. 

As for Apple dropping the Mac Pro... I don't get this. People really think that Apple will give up on professional computers? 

I used to be into dirt bikes,so I dig knowing my tools!

By the way I'm a non rich leftie,so I ONLY have a chambered body Studio Les Paul[and the pots are Righty! arrgh!-yes there is a difference, and-no you can't just wire them the other way]

Thanks Seth,I didn't know about the Linux connection.

I can dig that and I don't intend to minimize the value of knowledge. I've learned a lot about PCs, troubleshooting them and putting them together. Right now, I appreciate the fact that I don't have to think in terms of computers, though.
