and there's the reason

there are less variables with macs, because the hardware and software are made by the same company.

is a 6 yo PC supposed to b stable? as opposed to a new PC...lol..im confused

Old things are more stable because they've had hundreds of bug fixes etc. over the years. The newer something is, the more likely you are to have problems. Think about Windows Vista.

But what the whole ecstacy about logic in the world?!

every DAW out there uses at least 32-bit floating point calculations for internal processing (including summing busses). sonar uses double precision (64-bit). the conversion to 16 or 24-bit (or whatever) audio is done at the output when all busses are summed already (using floating point calculations). and 24-bit for mastering is enough.
i don't go around saying that cubase logic or flstudio has outdated "audio engine" 'cause sonar uses double precision (and has used for 2 years). and u don't make the transition to sonar 'cause your favourite DAW has outdated "audio engine". in the end it all comes down to workflow. your personal preference.

PS! i don't use sonar.

i have had a powerbook for 4 years now, on the net and dloading all the time... no virus scanners or anything. just the odd update here and there, and i haven't had one issues. My girlfriends hp laptop lasted 2 months till it had to be formatted, and my brothers pc lasted 4 months and its already in repair. I rather pay the money upfront and not worry about anything.
Over priced.....very. Worth it? yes.
They are work horses.
hope that helps

PC vs. Mac is always a hassle.

Everybody has an opinion about it. So far this topic is doing reasonably well considering the past topics about this. However, if the topicstarter starts to claim the following:

quote:

I want to run logic on the mac.. logic sound better than cubase.. the mixdown on logic or cubase is different mixdown!

I really feel inclined to say you're being led by what others tell you. And far from everything on the internet is 100% true. Most likely more than 99% biased actually.

First of all Logic sounds better to you, compared to Cubase. It's subjective, an opinion. It can not be a fact. Of course the sequencers sounds different. That only makes sense since different people have been working on different things, and both the developers have a different view on things.

On top of that you actually already give away the answer yourself. You 'want to run login on the mac'. Well you can, and since Logic 8 is very cheap compared to 7 I see no reason why you shouldn't. However it is not a question we can answer for you. Yes it's worth the money, but a generic pc with reasonable hardware can do just about the same thing. You decide what to do with your money.

If you really had a clue what you want, what you're aiming for, what works for you or what you are talking about you wouldn't be asking us what to do. I would recommend you to think it over carefully and decide what to spend your money on.

If you did know what you are doing you wouldn't need to ask this question. Just because of that I would recommend you to try out some sequencers (demos/at friends etc), find out what you like/dislike, what kind of workflow you prefer. And definitely not spend any money until you know what to spend it on, and why you're spending it!

Just about the same here (internet all day+no virus scanner/firewall etc), but on a windows pc. Still going strong, no problems at all .
Have done an online virus check (Trend Micro) about a year ago but didn't find anything except this one cookie :P

I can't stress this enough. I bought Cubase, and am now selling it 6 months later because I can't handle the workflow - I'm using Reaper instead.
