Michael, Duh!  I did not even notice that and thought this was a new thread.  Sorry!

No worries Konrad, it really is kind of disorienting when a thread lasts months and sometimes years ;-)
 
Regards, 

Thanks for the feedback, Mike!
 
Yeah, I hear ya, Buddy.  I agree, it would seem even a barebones laptop would be a better road-home for Sonar X2.  But I will be getting a Surface Pro anyway for my design and artwork (using my Wacom pen/stylus for mobile design work)... so I was hoping Sonar could just piggy-back on the Surface Pro without me having to shell out for another computer.
