For those of us in Film/TV world, this problem is made even worse because, as a composer, many of my sample libraries have not been sitting idly by over the past few years. Those libraries and many plug-ins have continued to develop, to the point where they were not running smoothly on the old OS.

So much of the job of a composer is being on top of music trends and using the latest sounds. When those make your system unstable, the only way to continue is by taking the plunge to the new OS. Now, I'm in a situation where, sonically, everything is great, but I'm back to about 2005 in terms of functionality?

This is such a gigantic bummer. How has it continued this long?
