I would suggest something with firewire USB is a pretty cpu hungry slower interface. You dont give us a lot of idea of what you intend to do with your system exactly as in what sort of plugins you are going to run. I switched to a Mac system a while ago which can run any OS you want. I just go sick ...

iMac bumped today.. better value... does anyone actually realize that the supposed "industry standard" parts in a Mac have to meet a higher standard than most PC manufacturers. Apple pays a premium for the harder tested components. Thats why you can go buy a cheaper system with similar loo...

If you use software update to update you run the risk of it not working 100% this is a very very rare thing. If so they always suggest using combo updates as it is a litt...

was going to answer no it isnt a problem when I see you are talking about Windows and I am running it on OS X with no issues at all so sorry I can't tell you on that platform but I can't remember anyone saying there is a problem on the spectrasonics yahoo threads.
