LOL Jonbouy...........I am to subtlety what you are to sledgehammers.

I wouldn't mind other than some folk here would take what he was saying as accurate and important when in fact in this case it was completely errant and irrelevant, hopefully I was able to explain why.

I have had some crashes here on my laptop running W8. Wich I cannot explain. I have placed new Crucial memory and at some point I probably replace the C drive. But this laptop has performed well with Vista & W7.

There are alot of things changing in PC-land. And right now we are in transition time I think. I'm quite sure the Cakewalk team will turn this to their advantage in their own time. 

All I know now is that it takes me quite some time to get used to W8. And W7 is still the OS to beat. But Sonar works quite well on a laptop. If you buy a new laptop you can do much more tracks than you usually need for a simple song. And mixing down a 60 track song back to 8 and upping that number to another 60 doesn't hurt a production one bit... 

Yes the new OS is different. But updates are pushed out at an incredible rate by Microsoft. So what's new today is old tomorrow...

hey mike,
i should come over and see if you can find me an acceptable X2 GUI to convince me to upgrade . 
cheers

I still don't have an "over her" to come to.
We're still living with our daughter in one room while our house is being built. This week we got to the framing stage so we hope to be at lockup by end of year. Looking forward to finally having a studio again about March/April 2013 sometime.
 
I'll give you a call soon.
My apologies to the forum for taking a personal moment with this unrelated post

I'm living the dream, making enough money for my needs and having fun along the way. One day it'll all be over and I'm pretty sure when my end does come I'm not going to be thinking I wish I'd have spent more time trying to find out if my chosen interface's claimed round trip latency is as accurate as claimed or if they got it wrong by 3 or 4 msecs.

:-)

Knowing my luck that'll be the question that I have to know the answer to to gain entry to some musical nirvana after life.

...I don't have the heart to tell him that those making music in this world will be assigned to things lile data collection, chart creation, benchmark testing, and the like, in the next one... At the moment he's happy so let him dream.
