wow... I don't know about how logic 6 was distributed, but it says that logic 7 needs a DVD drive to install... finally they're getting smart and taking advantage of 4+ GB of data on one disc!
I would grab logic 7 if I had a G5... but I don't so... meh.
It's a very impressive package.
For a grand, it better make me more creative. Or at least better looking. That's the wonderful thing about Apple software. Those rock bottom prices. Don't get me wrong, Apple's done some great things, but I just can't agree with some of their pricing ideas.

Digidesign 002 costs over 2k, granted Logic doesnt need hardware, thats a plus in my book. I will use my Mbox for input if i need it using the new Coreaudio.

Pissed off at Apple and Emagic for dropping this on us so suddenly.
Happened before Logic Pro 6.4 was released too. People who paid for various plug-ins get screwed. I could have kept my Logic Platinum until now and paid $300, but instead i've paid almost $700 in plug-ins and upgrades like a sucker. The $200 upgrade to Logic Pro was well worth it, but that came just a couple weeks after I'd paid $250 for the EXS24 sampler (which was included in the $200 upgrade).
Just a week ago i paid $250 for Intonator HS for powercore, and sure the vocal corrector included in Logic 7 is native and will eat up CPU power, but I would not have bought Intonator if I knew this was coming in Logic 7 so soon!
Screw Apple. I hate these sudden releases. I hate how loyal customers are treated like crap.

I don't think so, if I'm not mistaken, apple bought E-Magic within the last year. Ostensibly to compete with the developers of the leading PC sequencing programs.
