I can't afford down time to sort out Apple's premature release issues.

Yeah, same here. I was about to break. But a little rumor got me to hold out again. My best guess is that we'll see rev B in august. But it's possible that they are released sooner...

I think my percentage is as low as some quicker CPU's because I applied the tweaks found on the following page:

Go to: Links -> "Optimize Music PC" (I advice to read the HRC-article first).

Brilliant topic and test, Adamjay. Really let's us see a benchmark for our machines.

Dual 1.8 G5 doing exactly what it was expected to do on your first post. Peaking at 49 percent. 1.25 Gigs ram, 7200 rpm HD's of course. Only running Safari and finder in the back. Live 5.2.


So... comparing this to what people are getting on their PC's... I want Live 6 Dual Processor support!!! (:

Still hope to see you in Indy sometime.

oh yes i remember you have to pay for the macintel one. sorry

although actually i thought it was the same program, but you just had to pay for a new license on the macintel (??)
