Hey Guys!
I'm about to spend 17000 Euro on a DAW, and I'm having trouble deciding what to buy. I want reliability and a rig that's gonna last me a long time. The Tibook is cool and portability is sexy and all that, but is it powerful and stable enough for making a record at home? Is a firewire hd capable of handling 24-32 tracks of audio? Does Logic 5 running under OS X make use of the dual processor system? Thanks, Schack |

To sit into a laptop, computer have to cut corners, unfortunately, it's the ones the most useful for power computing: cache, HD speed, max ram, display etc.
If you're main work is best suited on a desktop, go for it. then eventually you can have a laptop for travel or help. If you're never at home and can get with it, go laptop. Laptops simply can't outperform desktops, plain and simple. And personally I begin to hate gigs with guys fixing their laptops and balancing their bodies without anything else on stage. Get a desktop and shake that ass !  That said, Kraftwerk tonight in Paris was GREAT
