So just buy an already setup, tested, and warranted computer from someone who knows what they are doing. Then, ***do not update it yourself*** - use it as is just like a dedicated piece of equipment. Down the road, get that same person who knows what they are doing to update it for you or build you a new one. I am not saying that these problems do not exist, and things can get better for those who don't mind knowing a bit. I am saying thought that for the person who does not want to know anything, they can avoid the knowing somewhat if they will take an approach along the lines mentioned. > > IMO the issue is "stand alone" vs "computer". > > Regards, > Ralf all the best, drew -- http://freemusicpush.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
