true - you gotta get a top end mac G3 to get scsi - so it looks like your getting an audio mac on paper for 1 grand - then you discover you only get a scsi buss mac for over 2 grand - whoops !! - arrrggggggggg !! - and playing Un-Real over the network on the PC is alone worth getting a pc for !! - hasta be done !! - as for that "double-the speed" thing - you gotta remeber that the mac is running RISC instructions like the atari -
i think you'd be shocked to see a new P3 rammed up, running Photoshop4 with a 21" screen and a pair of 13mb graphics accellerators - 26mb total summed ---- and fact, when they ran rendering tests on major pc's the mac failed miserably - despite the falacy that the G3 is a class rendering and graphics machine it didnt come close to pc redering speeds - ... :-) - my brother was trained at college and now works his design company with 4 mac's - and goddam are they ever slow !! - :-) - still... he makes shit-loads of money tho - bastard -- heh heh !!
hey - i'd never get rid of my 1040 either !!.... anyways - I'll be a MAC dealer soon (if i decide to,.. they said i can be if i want to be i just have to send the form in) - so lemme know if you want a new cheap G3 - we can work summat out i'm sure they are pretty cheap @ trade price
by the way i can pull 10 stereo/20 mono audio tracks on a dx100 with 32mb ram with an audio multi-track - never bothered to find out on newer machines, but my mate gets 24 audio VST tracks with direct-fx easy on his 1 year old P2 300 with 64mb and udma drive for audio - they cost about 500 now - (plus he added a matrox graphics accelerator for faster screen draws ((and playing unreal !!!! - hasta bee done :-)))))
