Come on Digidesign, please see the light and start moving PT Native forward. What are you going to do in March when Apple releases it's i7 Xeon 8-16 core computers with 32 logical cores? If a current HD owner wants more power, they'll just need to upgrade their computer which will be cheaper than 1 Accel card, and give one over 10+ times the DSP power. The music industry has changed, the economy has changed and we're 9+ years into a new century. Time to wake up.

PT Native is no longer the bastardized step child. We're the native youth gone wild and HD is now the old man.
