Yea Eddie, the fact is Windows is, and has always been, broke.

They should have borrowed more than they did from unix/xenix/linux and the 300 or so variants. All of them allow you to attach priorities to fix that issue.

I disagree on keyboards. I have 4. I got a Korg Ps60, straight forward, great horns/strings, organs. You can lift it with 2 fingers. I've had it over a year and not opened the manual yet.

EVERYone needs a good up to date USB mixer, but unless you are mic'in drums or recording more than a 2 piece band you don't need a 16 in hardware solution.

IN fact, when Peter first put in the ability to record in Band in a Box the examples were using the cheap mic built into a laptop. And it sounded not bad.

Unless you've a drawer full of cash (please pm me for where to send some )incremental is the way to go. Next thing you know you have a board the size of a car, and U2 are sitting in your house waiting to record and all your beer is gone again.
