He want a "typical" sequencer. For me, as a occasional teacher, I interpret that as "I need a tool to go from theory to practice". If that is Cisco/Linux/Volvo/Samsung/wrench or what ever it doesn't matter as long as you have been thorough in your theory teaching. > I mean the "most important" argument[*] for not switching to free software > is always "I am used to this and that, relearning is far to much time".

I some times lecture in computer networks at royal institute of technology in Stockholm. The problem is not to show students the principals of the task but to make useful laborations. For that you often need a specific tool. Different tools takes up huge amount of preparation time. I do use Cisco/Juniper/"Linux-PC with Quagga" to teach in OSPF/ISIS/BGP. One laboration may take weeks to construct. It's not getting any easier if you have 3-4 platforms. regards, /bengan _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
