Posted by pudge on from the win-an-oscar-and-we-can-talk dept.

Therlin writes "For the first time the first technical Grammy given to a PC Company, and that company is Apple. From the original Macintosh with its built in recording capabilities to iTunes and iPod, Apple has stayed ahead of the game." See Apple's Press Release for the official spin.

    It seems that you just have a little chip on your shoulder regarding Apple. Check yourself.

    Apple's getting the award because they've done more than any company in terms of making the non-linear recording/production studio accesible to the little guy and big guy alike. The PowerPC *still* handles audio better than either the Athlon or Pentium, and the systems that are built around them by Apple are better suited for the task.

    Ask anyone worth their salt in Audio Engineering... And stop shooting from the hip when you post here ;)
