Why would I not think it likely? It's happened several times in the past,
why would I just assume it wouldn't again? Like I said though, speed of
processing isn't an issue for me. My 400Mhz computer won't be outdated for
a couple of years yet and with my setup I will still be able to do more DSP
than the fastest x86 host processor available. I'm not really into the
speed wars, it's really just a testosterone pissing match in my opinion.
But that's just me, I wouldn't want to sway anyone's opinion one way or
another, just saying that the x86 arguments don't affect everyone. I am
more content making music than worrying who's got a bigger gigahurtz ;-))
