I'm one of you guys again...

Well, almost. 
 
Until my wife visits her parents and manages to find my copy of Sonar, it's pretty useless, but... Check out my awesome vintage, relic'd PC! ;)
 

 
So now I'm one of you elitists Windows PC fanboys! :P Did I mention this wonder runs Windows XP? Yes sir, you heard me right. It's as classic as a 1932 Ford Coupe, or avocado appliances or something...
 
And I finally found a use for my "old" Focusrite Scarlett.

At last, I'll be able to use those old HG Fortune (RIP) freeware synths that I liked so much. I guess I could install my old copy of Live LE or Cubase light as a host.
 
Since the gentlemen at Cakewalk seem to have given up on the idea of releasing a Mac version after all... XP it is.

Hahaaa!!
I withhold that XP was the best, most stable, most compatible release of Windows to date (in my experience). Win7 being a close second, with Vista at the bottom.

I'm also running XP Pro 32. Love it because it's rock solid and since it's off line as well, it's as fast as the day I installed it.
 
And..... you haven't lived until you have had cinnamon brown appliances. Just saying. Hard to tell if it's clean or is that some burned on cheese? Ahh.. doesn't matter.
