OK, so here goes.
For a small-potatos setup (recording demos and original music for Flash animation): A mini Mac with 1GB RAM Digidesign MBox in one of the USB ports Glyph drive in the firewire OS + production software in the internal HD Recording tracks onto the Glyph Good? Bad? Indifferent? Cheap minds want to know! Many thanks, --IW |

you just wanted an excuse to buy a mac mini didn't you, you'd be happy if I said 10 tracks...!!
I know, I want one too, I might go to the Apple store tonight and see if they got any of those funky white usb memory chips that play music and they got some yankee dj there tonight on traktor or something up in the theatre, shame the genius bar doesn't serve drinks. Go for the bluetooth option as well on the mac mini, with the wireless keyboard n mouse so there's even less usb traffic... -------------------- Simon Flinn
