Are the improvements worth the money for audio?
Specifically: It seems that there are very good graphics improvements (from what were already exceptional), but budgetwise I don't need better graphics, but rather optimal audio functionality. Also, a couple of questions... 1) The Xserve technology that I think all of the new G4's come with seems to be a server based advantage. I am somewhat of a novice. ...Was Apple trying to design a superpower machine for creative people (like me who wants to dedicate my machine to recording music) and therefore assumed that when you are recording that your machine is functioning as a server as opposed to a home computer? 2) Is the Mac® OS X version 10.2 “Jaguar” designed for tasks such as audio recording? Have there been some good reviews on this yet?

?? Are people returning the New Mac Dual 1.2Ghz's just because ofthe increased fan noise.
We keep the actual CPU's out of the Studio Monitoring and recording area's completely in a separate equipment room where all the noisy stuff goes Drives Etc, The room also has it's own cooling system and we were wondering if there was more to the fact that people were returning these systems than just he Fan Noise and decreased cooling efficiency. We are going to the 1.25's as these will apparently be the last systems from Apple that will be able to Boot from OS 9 in the newest machines to come you can still use OS 9 but you will not be able boot from OS 9 it which as I am sure you all know could be a real hassle.` |
