now i use my regular backup apps for backing up my entire Mac HD ..and what would those apps be? I've been trying to use Time Machine for quite some time now, and just recently bought a new 1.5TB external drive to backup to. For some reason TMachine stops after a while and refuses to continue with ...

10.6 is ordered, but I think I'll wait and see before I install the thing.
As far as I can remember I had some issues when upgrading from Tiger..

Yeah, I was using Logic 8 yesterday doing a mixdown for someone and was amazed at the number of plug ins being used with barely any CPU hit on my 3 year old MBP. Apple definitely has optimized that app! Absolutely! I also tried the Killers project on one of the discs with 80 tracks.. ran nicely. Wi...

I used Logic on PC until version 5.5 when apple bought the thing.. After getting a MBP 2 years ago I have been thinking about starting to use it again, but haven't seen any use for it because I had Live. After the price were slashed I wanted to get my hands on it again.. I just recently got Logic 9,...

any thoughts?

This only happens with Alchemy, no other synth, and as far as I can remember it has been like this on all versions...

Yes, all versions of 8 has been very slow to load on my MBP. The latest beta loads faster it seems.

I use a MBP as my main computer. When at home it is sitting in a bookendz dock tucked away under my desk for easy connection to my external monitor. What I was wondering is..
