Re: [exs] Logic on a mac

2002-07-04 by Sascha Franck

If you know me, you will also know that I am one of the most loyal Logic
supporters.
But shelling out around 2500 Euros (and that would be the LEAST amount ot
money) for a Mac, just to own a machine that still is slower than what I
would get from upgrading my current machine (which would cost me 500 Euros
max.), is ridiculous.

I never had too much stability problems apart from the times where I was
testing a new beta or some new VST plugin either.
Call me a poor dude, OK, I am. I simply can't afford any Mac that would
deliver even the same performance that I am getting with my current machine
(an Athlon 1GHz).
Yes, it's that easy for me. I just can't afford it, period. Maybe I could if
it was for Logic only, but there's a whole bunch of apps I use regularly
that don't even exist on Macs. So I'd have to get at least some replacements
(if there are any).

And that's just it.
Simple and sad - but still true. I will continue using what I have for a
while (maybe even for a long while), but Cubase SX sure looks more tempting
than any Mac at the moment. At least in the long run.

Regards,
Sascha
