NOV

2007

Finally, I'm free to work on music outside of my bedroom. I can actually take this on-the-go for recording sessions or even mix down sessions at a coffee shop. The processing power is now pretty comparable to my old G5 dual processor desktop. Running Logic 8, I'm a vert happy camper. The computer does get a bit hot, but there is a program called SMC Fan Control that you can download (search Google), which lets you manually control the fan speed. I've been very happy since then.
