[dothetrancedance]

funny to put VDJ and Logic in one sentence hehehe...

well since Logic was bought by Apple in '02 you will find it tricky, actually nearly impossible, to run on a Wintel box.
there are maybe hacks that could allow to do so but the overhead you would pay defeats the purpose of a stable running DAW.

But it doesn't need to be Logic, there's always Cubase, Sonar (my fav), Reason (though a bit too self contained, esp audio import, but still possible via ReWire), Live, FL Studio etc. :grinning:

my setups are "fairly" old but for the moment absolutely sufficent for what I do.
well, everything is old today after 6 months innit?!

cool thread here are my specs of my laptop that I use everyday, I used to game but go out of it, very addicting haha

MacBook Pro 15"

• 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
• 2GB memory
• 200GB hard drive
• Double-layer SuperDrive
• NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT with 256MB
• wifi ABGN
• FireWire 800 & 400
• Audio IN Jack

It does the job for my everyday use such as browsing, email, AH stuff, decoding, encoding etc
Battery life is really good on this (5hours with wifi on) have been really happy with it, but it does come with a heavy price, but then again 48$/month is not bad

I don't even know. I just use these computers, I don't pay much attention to their specs.
