The Logic Off Topic list

I have been using Lengeling's software since 1986 on commodore then 
switched to Atari in '88, switched to Mac in '94 and I have moved to 
PC about 2 Years ago. The reason has never been financial (I have 
sold over 15 millions records using Lengeling's software over the 
years) but technical. I think Emagic becoming a Mac only app is a 
step backward. I don't believe that Apple's acquisition will be good 
for Logic. In my experience when a small dedicated company merge 
with big one the small company loses its identity and drive to be 
the best. It is due in part that the founders of the small company 
get very rich overnight and their priorities change. Of course they 
always make statement that things will remain the same or better but 
it never happen. Apple's concern for the actual 130 000 Logic Mac 
user  (how many pro Platinum user there?) will be little. Apple is 
looking for the big picture, an application every musician can make 
music with, that's great but not for the electronic musician who is 
always looking for edge. I would buy a Mac tomorrow if I could run 
windows XP on it, they look cool and they are well build. Since it 
is impossible, I will stay with 5.2 on XP for a while learn XS 
slowly to switch program later when VST3 and other innovation show 
up. That will be the end of a 16 years relationship.
