I need a computer for audio recording and I'm leaning towards a Mac, but I keep hearing all these things about software not running in OS X or 9.1. All new Macs come with OS X and 9.1, will I be able to run Logic audio/Cubase with this? I have a budget of about $2500(for computer ,with educational discount, and soundcard), what would you recomend(I don't need more than 2 inputs, but I do need midi)? Thanks in advance

tis true that OS X will not run hardly any music apps right now (not even in classic mode) but you can always boot machine in 9.1 and then run audio apps... I am not sure what apps will and won't run in 9.1 but I run ProTools LE 5.1 on OS 9..1 with no probs.
