I’m happy to concede that award to you guys!

In the history of BIAB, there is pre-2007, when it was all MIDI and didn’t require much computer horsepower (except for the early software synths). Then 2007 (RealDrums) and 2008 (RealTracks) to about two years ago. Finally there is the current version or two where the minimum specs to run BIAB were raised. A lot of users here seem to still be in the second stage. You may be one of a very few still in the first.
