Default Re: Thoughts on the Future of the 001...and Apple

Well I wouldn't exactly call the 001 the "leading Mac interface".

The future of host-based "prosumer" systems is in Firewire. The next 001, if there is one, will be firewire. At least, it better be. There will be lots of opportunities for technologies to advance and therefore many reasons for you to get a new Mac.

- Firewire will improve in speed and performance. You'll need new hardware to take advantage of this.

- OS X!! Before too long neither Apple nor Digidesign, MOTU, eMagic, etc. will offer much support for OS 9. You might need a faster Mac to properly take advantage of OS X.

The digi001 is at least two-year-old technology. It's time for something new, something that takes advantage of recent developements.
