Bingo, now you're getting it. That's what we all do. It's not so much the physical parts though, it's the software that comes bundled with any off the shelf PC that is not optimized for what we do. This is why if you're going to be using your machine for music production you must be geek enough to know how to set it up. I know you're afraid to go to unknown websites and download strange programs with cryptic instructions or go into the internals of your system and start changing things but that's the name of the game. If you don't want to become a computer nerd, you may as well give it up now. Our type of music production is a very small fraction of the PC market so we get no love at all from the manufacturers. You buy the basic machine and after that you're on your own.
