I think it's the OSX operating system. In the old system 9x, you had to sometimes allocate more memory to applications but with OSX, the system automatically adjusts that (so I am told.) The new macs offer multiple processors (as do PCs) and use intel chips (although I heard they may be going to something else soon.) I don't know what the benchmark scores are. Depends on the software, I guess. Jean, I've been hearing so many stories pro and con about Windows vs. Mac. One thing for sure is Windows are a lot cheaper. I can get 8 gigs of memory with a Dell for half the price of 3 gigs with Mac. And Dell includes the screen. Mac doesn't, at least not in the Mac Pros I've been scrutinizing. I'll be traveling to a DAW business tomorrow. That should feed my brain with more frustrating info. Especially since their DAW's will probably be set-up and running perfectly (and sounding great).
