Outside of the Linux audio community, I haven't met a musician who was interested in computers for their own sake. Generally, I find musicians relate to computers as other artists do - as a tool which they expect to 'just work' - or as something arcane and unreliable, and best avoided altogether. > "musicians" don't want to learn anything new or different, > "musicians" are lazy, "musicians" are stupid.... I never said any of those things. I'm optimistic that Linux will soon provide reliable creative tools that are widely accessible - not something we've ever had before. I bet a Linux box now costs less in real terms than one decent open reel tape recorder did in the 1950s. Cheers Daniel
