Are there any rumors about PT11?

No joke - didn't some company a few years back actually write their own OS for recording? Not a big seller IIRC.

Yep.

Embedded systems, such as the Venue, are different thing but DAWs are supposed to run on standard computers. Back in the day, there was only Mac. Then there was Windows. And that IMO is limiting Avid regarding software development. Had they only write for OSX we would probably have had 64bit PT ages ago. But now everything needs to work on OSX+Windows. That is why some people wish for dedicated OS, but I strongly think that will never happen.
