Any of you producers ONLY use a laptop or desktop to produce or remix tunes? If so, what are your setups like? (specs of the computer, types of software used, etc.)

I do all my producing on my pc, which is a 1.2ghz athlon w/ 1gb of ram. As a controller I use the edirol pcr30. It's not the greatest setup, and due to my old sound card I have issues with latency, but it works well enough. Oh yea I use cubase.

AMD 2500+ 1024 MB RAM, Cubase SX, but I bought a PCR 50 MIDI controller a while ago, I have only onboard soundcard..

i use software only on a 1.6ghz p4, 512mb RAM, intel integrated sound and good old fashioned mouse and keyboard. i sequence with fl studio 4.1, free VSTis or demo VSTis (thanks native instruments, superwave et al!)

my songs are available from myself 'anthonyb' on soulseek in my d:\music\ folder. most recent song is 'anthony b - 5 am comedown.'

on that track i use free drum and fx single shots from breakbeat paradise, some fx loops from primesounds.com, mostly demo VSTi's like superwave pro, NI FM-7 demo (nooooo, it wont save any of my changes :O), NI Reaktor demo and the full Luxonix Ravity.
