Re: Home recording, Mac vs. PC
Good luck getting any decent DAWs for Windows without paying for them (or pirating the software).
I mean, come on, there's no need for the depreciating talk on Linux. I don't like seeing such stuff degrade into OS wars.
Besides which, Linux is free, so you can't really complain. Even then, like I pointed out, maybe a non-computerized solution is called for, like an 8 track (or more) station that burns its own CDs.
Then you don't have problems with Windows instability / insecurity, Mac's high cost, and/or Linux's lack for good software (if you believe all the stereotypes, that is).
What I'm saying is that there really isn't a perfect solution, and that your circumstances will dictate which one works best for you. Examples: I highly doubt any recording business that demands stability uses Windows, or Linux for that matter: they probably go custom / solid state when they can. My friend has a $2,300 station that burns its own CDs, and in his shoes, he doesn't need a Mac, or even a computer.
