iPad Air

[Kim Johnsson]

Hi guys!

Sonar has since 2008 been misbehaving to such an extent that I've decided
to go the Mac & Logic way. Doubtless that combination will introduce a
different set of frustrations, but I simply can't go on with Sonar anymore,
as I've lost my work because of it crashing too may times than I care to
remember. Also, I've had a MacBook Air for some time now, and I really like
OSX, and some of the new features of Mavericks are exactly what I want in a
desktop machine. I'll probably be getting a 27" iMac with 256 GB flash
drive. I don't see how I would need more fast storage; I seldom work on
that many songs at a time, and I don't use software samplers with huge
sample libraries that stream from the HD. I actually even considered the
new Mac Pro, but apparently it would require going minimum six cores to
have any substantial benefit over the iMac (for graphics it's probably a
different matter, and I don't do graphics). The iMac's new Haswell should
be roughly equivalent to the Mac Pro's Xeon with four cores, and the cost
of even the most lightweight Mac Pro is far from lightweight, so the iMac
it is. I hope to order it next week. The iPad Air has to wait :-(

Cheers,

Kim
