I just played a classic recording session and they used ProTools.....Are
you saying ProTools isn't a serious pro mastering application? I can't
think of anyone who doesn't use ProTools.......and Digidesign announced
Intel versions of Protools for Mac OS X in September.
If you watched the keynote on Monday (or read a good transcript) Apple
did not unveil everything in 10.5. I'm hoping that virtualization
(spelling?) will be part of 10.5 as many of the rumors of 10.5's
features suggest.......

No. Most people buying a computer today are buying it because the
software they want works on it, this includes the office software they
are used to and extends as far as games. MacOS can't compete, and in
fact even some special markets like the professional music scene are
lacking some rather important software choices. Music and Audio was
originally one of the Mac's domains, but today there is no serious
competitor to the pro mastering applications on the PC like Sequoia,
Sadie and Pyramix. This is such a huge dilemma that most classical
music studios have left the Mac.
Instead Apple has done the opposite, it allows people to run Windows
on their Macs. That way we can fill the gaps with Windows software
while not leaving our beloved platform for the rest. Rather a
brilliant move in my opinion.
