You've got very nice system specs. Give it some time, don't give up. All the ingredients are out there to make one helluva audio system - you just need to learn how to cook :) I built LFS (Linux from scratch) system. It took some serious interest to learn how to get it all together, but it's been worth it in every possible way. I have near perfect desktop audio system here with me right now - I couldn't imagine it being much better no matter what OS. This system delivers what Windows system could not deliver. This is the environment I feel at home - this is where I'm most productive. But like I said - it required a lot of work. It doesn't have to be like that for most of you. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
