I dunno.  Maybe it's time to see if Jim can build a decent 'Hackintosh'. 

Some people find getting Hackintoshes to work properly an interesting entertainment and time-filling hobby.
Way too much trouble as far as I’m concerned. I like computers that work and keep working without needing constant tuning or throwing a fit just when they’re most needed.

Accidental double post, please ignore.

So that requirement pretty much eliminates Windows PCs, LOL!!!

Building a "Hackintosh" is actually a fun "puzzle" (if you're into those kinds of things).
It's a great test of problem solving skills.
You solve one problem... and then it's on to another.
When all problems are solved, you wind up with a machine that's close to a Mac... but not exactly a Mac.
The devil is in the very fine details.
If you want a Mac, get the real thing.
With a "Hackintosh", literally any update can break the hacked OS.

Considering the recent News about Gibson dropping Cakewalk .
 
I'm glad I have a Mac that I love using for music production

 I'm glad I have a PC since it still supports all of my M-Audio legacy gear.

I see you are getting a few zings in there .......huh ?
it is common knowledge I use what ever I can get my grimy paws on when it comes to music production 
Believe it or not , I was very much like batsbrew in one very important regard ...I ran SONAR 6 PE under XP right up until a little over 3 years ago . I was very happy ,  my XP machine still has a Delta 1010lt and a Audiophile 192 in it for my sound cards  .
I still have that setup it never saw the net except for DAW software updates and it out lasted 4 other PC's that served double duty ...DAW & internet
I don't hate PC , I'm not a Mac fanboy ....I just love the idea that all this BS that's going on has absolutely no effect on neither on my Mac rigs 
 
all the best,

Plus you still have that cool Tracktion Waveform thingy, and all those other DAWs that you dabble around with. 
 
I may have to think of you as the biggest prepper around these parts, cuz you are better prepared for the end of days than most of us!

 I could resit the pot calling the kettle black.  I didn't see how the two relate.  I made it a point that Microsoft makes a great effort to support legacy devices where this is not the case with Apple.
 Mac don't fit my budget since I could easily upgrade 3 machines for the price of their "desktop" models.
