In my opinion, having a dedicated machine or not could be taking as precisely the difference between a "professional" and an "amateur." (if I recall a previous thread.) Another way of looking at it would be that a pro keeps his/her machine so busy that they need another one just to deal with non-audio stuff. That's what happens anyway...
