Hi Ian,

Of all the Forums I belong to, which are all music related, this is the only one I've been noticing it on.
Maybe a lack of patience sometimes. I've noticed since V2010 as opposed to V2009 Software, there seems to be a lot more frustration. I believe this also goes along with the new version of Windows 7.

New Software and New Computers. Campared to a year ago, there are a lot more (compatibility issues) to be worked out.
Using my XP machine with V2009.5, I only had one small issue to deal with. Everything works fine for me as long as I stay where I am.

Maybe the gap between the New User and the Old Pros is shrinking. It's not just the software. It's 32bit, 64bit, XP, Win7, RealTacks and it all comes on an external drive which has driven up the cost, along with having to get new interfaces.
An old user like myself will be asking the same basic questions when I get a new PC.

My current machine is a WinXP 2007 Gateway FX-something, Core 2duo, 2 gbRam, SB X-fi soundcard, Great Graphics card and a 500gb RAID system. I don't even know what RAID does and I don't care anymore. I also run two 22" moitors. It all works without a hitch..

I have to get a new PC very soon and I am totally clueless. I've really been avoiding it.
[I'm nervous just thinking about it]
I know, too long a post but, I think there are just too many learning curves at the moment.

[also concerned] Wayne,
