Check out my new workstation!!!
I was going to build a new desktop for the studio but decided to get one of these bad boys instead.
It should be here in April.

it looks cool. the current pics seem quite different from before, but i may be cursed by poor memory
the rendered pics are kind of funny! the one where the keyboard is sitting under that huge flatscreen in the living room - just a 3-octave keyboard so it looks like the white keys are each 2" wide
you ARE a brave man. but it does look neat.

they would be my main two concerns.....the ad/da is the most important part of a computer setup, for purists at least (or for me at least), so I want to be able to use whatever soundcard I see fit....and the firewire400 is limited unfortunately.....Summer2000 wrote: 5.) 4in/6out 24bit/96KHz.

tho if you have no problems with cash, you could always get a protools hd system with an apogee rosetta 800 and the xfirewire card to interface the rosetta or rosettas to protools
now that would be a monster you'd have on your hands

Ah, firewire 400. Thought it said 410. nevermind.
The picture looks weird there where the firebox is, like it was pasted on the picture. For a second I thought it wasn't real.
nice little station.

Ouch, they sting you on the 'upgrade' costs... not as bad as Apple does, but still. I think I'll stick to sourcing my own components for upgrades, but I understand that this approach isn't for everyone.
Good luck with that thing, although I would prefer to go the usual 'component' method, I can definitely see the advantage of getting an 'integrated' solution. I use my computers for a lot of other things, so it's obviously not in my best interests to get such a device.
I wonder how loud/hot it is?
Meanwhile, even though I can't afford to upgrade my PC at the moment, if I could I would wait until the new Intel dual core CPU is out... that looks like one sweet momma CPU they've got there.
