intel cpus are so much more stable and handle traktor better than amd! that is probably a big part of it. however, i still managed to freeze my controller once. that's a better track record than the amd laptop. a power off/on again fixed it but i'm sure it'll happen again. i don't know which type of usb ports i have on here (1.1/2.0) and how much of that makes a difference. my guess is more than one midi message being sent at the same time runs the risk of getting out of sequence. but i think i'd hear more reports of this type of thing happening.
this is a used unit that i bought off another forum member and that may have been one of the reasons for selling it (stereothief, any insight? if you still check this forum?) and that's part of the risk of used gear. i do love this unit and want to continue using it (and don't have the budget for something else while in the market for a replacement laptop)
