The Mac's interface has so much more class than the PC that is isn't funny. Only folks that have grown up on the PC prefer it, in my experience. Everything looks like a bad Mac imitation on the PC..with ugly fonts and stupid lines under menu items, really cheesy. No offense to PC lovers, meant. Gotta call it like I see it.
You'll spend the 2000 anyway on gear....this never stops....preamps, speakers, mikes, sound modules, software. Say goodbye to your money once you are into all this.
