A new Macbok Pro for a PC Geek
Well after fighting with my eMachines M6811 for about a year I gave up. I bought a MacBook Pro. Just loaded up PT 7.3 for the 002R and I'm up and running. As I type I've got 20 Dverbs going and 32 tracks playing and recording. Buffer is at 64 and cpu usage at 99%. So far it has been an easy transition. It took me about 3 hours total.
I'd be happy if I hadn't already spent 1K on that eMachines POS. Just a pain to have to buy a computer twice to run PT. But I'm happy now and I can stop bitching about how it wouldn't work on the M6811.
So if you are thinking about getting a laptop. So far I can't reccomend the MacBook Pro enough. Having never owned or used a mac before I've stuggled a bit with basic things but I'm figuring it out.
Do I get banished to the Mac forum now?
Well after 14 minutes I finally got a 6086 error. Likely because I'm typing and moving things around. Or the 64 buffer, or all the Dverbs.
