Cheaper? When you're now talking about $35 for quad core 1.2ghz with onboard wifi and bluetooth, who gives a shit? That's literally half the price of a new AAA video game.
Yeah, you're making yourself look exceptionally silly with this. I don't love ProTools, and I go out of my way to avoid it, but as a recording engineer of 35 years, I can absolutely assure you that it most certainly is the standard.
It's fine on a hobby level if you're exceptionally careful to vet the hardware you want tot use, but I'd never recommend it for professional recording work. Too many hardware limitations and you end up locked out of the vast landscape of cross-platform plugins and third party programs that are largely seamlessly interoperable across both hardware and software platforms.
Eh. Red Hat didn't 'pick it up', it was the reason the company was formed, and the were very small at first and not exactly shooting the moon with their own development efforts. They didn't even have create their Linux distribution until the end of 1994. HP, IBM and Novell didn't go anywhere near it for years. It was a highly usable system before any of them got involved.
Yeah, they do. Go look at their website. They offer bricks in pretty much any optional packaging you can imagine, from singles to large packages of one type, to large assortments of generic bricks.
It has at least four years to go before they stop updating it, and in any case, that doesn't justify them fucking around with my system behind my back.

Why would they? 99 percent of their actual paying customers aren't using Linux in the studio.
Wow. If that's true, it's completely useless.

That's fortunate.

Boy howdy, let me tell you, anyone able to lay down such a reasoned, thoughtful response has certainly gotten ME to rethink my position!
Just no 1st amendment for 'Bong Hits for Jesus' cause the baby Jesus doesn't believe in the first amendment.
Can you point to Obama's effort to rid the country of private gun ownership? Cause I'm pretty sure it only exists inside your fevered mind.
He was a strict constructionalist when it suited his ideology.

Must be slow learners.
The difference is, Linux became useful in a couple of years. Hurd has been in development since fucking 1983! 32 freaking years.
You think that will happen before the heat death of the universe?
Yeah, they do. Go look at their website. They offer bricks in pretty much any optional packaging you can imagine, from singles to large packages of one type, to large assortments of generic bricks.
Well, unless you're black and in the toy department picking up a toy gun.
Um...the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park /were/ CGI.

/. hates everything. Are you new here?
You should probably go back on your meds.
Yes, but that's just /.
No no...he's right!
What media are you looking at that you think his death was ignored?? Fox News?
