Having made the jump from OS 9 to OS X on the same machine completely 
in the last 9 months I feel compelled to jump in here.

It is really obvious the difference in track count AND plugin handling 
between 9 & X. 9 running Logic 6.4 wins by an obvious margin in both 
areas.

 From what I've heard (read) recently, Tiger is a a somewhat more CPU 
efficient OS than Panther...? I'll bet it's still not back to the same 
efficinecy of OS  9.2.2.

Over a year ago I remember reading guys saying "you have to buy a G5 to 
run  OS X to have it feel like a G4 running OS 9.

Just thought I say this.....
