I'll try writing this message again: After reading this site for six months (and looking unsuccessfully for a comparable Windows/music site--any suggestions?), I am still unsure that, given my needs I should purchase a Mac or a Windows machine. I would like to use my computer, software (as yet unpurchased) and Yamaha S80 keyboard for: 1)composition and arranging for various instrumental and vocal groups (and in writing out hard copies of my work), 2) production of demo CDs of my compositions with an approximation of the vocals and instrument sounds for which they are written, and 3) live performce on my S80, with myself as vocalist. I have little need at this point to incorporate exotic sounds which, as I understand it, many of the "plug ins" produce or to produce a CD with many analog input tracks. My wife owns a Windows based laptop, which I would like to network with. My teenage non-musican son will probably be sharing my computer (if I can truly keep him out of my files), or I may purchase a low-end desk top for his use, and network with that as well. For my situation would a Mac computer be highly recommended over Windows? In either case, what sort of music software and hardware would I need?
