Vista may be a resource hog if you don't know how to manage your computer correctly. If you build haus systems like I do it's not a problem, either.
AMD Phenom II X4 Deneb 3.0G
G.Skill 8G RAM 5-5-5-15
2 x EVGA GTX 275 896MB GPU's in SLI mode
...but none of this answers my question.
Is there any news from Digidesign that officially states that there is x64 compatibility in the works? None of this "Rumor has it" business...
From an IT standpoint, you shouldn't be wanting to use XP... with Windows 7 coming out, and Vista already on the market, XP is not only obsolete now but when Windows 7 comes out, support is going to slowly go away. Talk about being reliable for your clients...
I always feel like I'm beating a dead horse when I post on this forum. Obviously my search turned up no results if I'm making a post. A thorough search on the Digi website turned up no results either.
All said and done, this project is for me personally, I don't record clients. Just me.
