   Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more

   the opposite direction.

Ok, so why do you expect some one to do this? Most of us are not genius. I do not think anyone is saying bigger is better, but how much responsability are you taking for your own need? How much learning have you put into your needs? How much study and learning did the original author of the above quote put into his life that he was able to make this connection? How much time and energy are you asking soomeone else to put into something that fits you exactly? With OSx, you pay someone to do that, with Linux, the download is the only cost, but you may need to do some setup. PCs are not made for low latency audio out of the box. Mac computers are supposed to be, it is at least a consideration in the design. With a PC the builder needs to choose what goes in their PC and how they connect things and what sw they use and how it fits together carefully if they wish to get similar results... nothing is free, you must choose if you will pay in money or time, I guess. The more optimization, the more time required. Most of us are looking for low latency performance first... and often never get to size of install. We only have so much time.
