Both of which on the latest preview build of Win 10. None of those statements would be true if I where to be using whatever the latest Mac OS these days.

Every time Apple releases an OS upgrade, it's a storm of posts here wondering when Pro Tools will be supported. Folks who upgraded too early complaining that nothing works.

Windows has its isssues, to be sure. But I don't see paying extra for the above headache of running a Mac to be worth it.

+1. The Mac OS versions are a moving target. Crazy...
