my post was a joke seriously though there are enough mac vs. pc threads, nothing is going to be resolved, make a decision you already know/can search for the facts

Evan_C both computers have their strengths and weakness, but to be honest. What it really comes down to is how much $$$ you have in your budget. I used a oldschool Toshiba 2.8 ghz 1.5Gb ram and it was a really good to me, I did have some small issue along the way but I always brought a back media just in case. Now Mac's, they are very expensive, why? But the machines work. I really dislike Mac Vs PC threads being that they go nowhere. If you got 3k go buy a Macbook Pro if you dont, and have 1.5k get a Dell or something of the same caliber. If you have 1k get a Macbook or Dell, do you see where Im going with this?

Well, what audio interface are you using?


I am still running the same Dell I bought three years ago and it works fine. I think it's finally starting to go, but I have a new machine to replace it. I have treated it well and it treats me well.

I TOTALLY agree 100% I am am still running a Dell Dimension 8200 with 2gigs of ram and a 1.8ghz processor (not dual core!) Its runs 3.4 and pro fine with my audio kontrol 1. I also have a macbook that I've been using with 3.4 and pro. Both set ups give me no grief because I keep them clean.

Ok so my desktop 2.6 pentium 4 not dual core and 1 2 gig mem- clean installed should handle traktor well but no, Im getting dropouts freezing etc. I can run my torq connectiv + TCV fine but not traktor. What gives?

The only reason I'm thinking about buying a Mac is to go along with the VCI-100. The ONLY reason. Other than that, I will always say that a well tuned PC can keep up with any Mac on any given day.

Why would you buy a MAC for the VCI-100?

What do you think is going to be posted in this thread that hasn't been posted in the 35 other threads? You think you're special?

Come on man...grow up a bit and read what other people have already written.
