That's OK. I'm not likely to do much musically for the next few months.

I do have one interesting out though. To get full browsing
capabilities (Java & flash + mplayer, etc.) I run Firefox in a
completely chroot'ed 32-bit enviroment on my AMD64 machine. I haven't
considered doing serious audio this until now, but possibly I can run
two jack servers, one in the 64-bit area using the HDSP 9652, to run
Ardour, etc, and a second in the 32-bit area using either the onboard
NVidia chip or I could put a second card in if this worked and was
useful. I'd tie the two environments together with external spdif or
audio cables.

Would it work? Might be fun to try.
