:D Anyway, this shouldn't be a problem, I just wonder that a lot of people seem to write emails, while recording music ;). > Yes, that's the whole problem!

This could be done by using just one computer. After doing the production, you could start an Internet connection etc. on the same Linux or Windows install. Perhaps you would log out and log in again to change the desktop environment, or you might boot a complete different install. But full ACK, it's possible to have several installs on one machine and nobody needs to play Tux racer, write an email, while playing music. > So then why does the music computer (i.e. the real-time instrument) > really need to have a GUI at all (at least a desktop one). Hm, I once used KDE, but for music often Ion. IMO GNOME should be ok when making music. > Just thinking out loud here.... Good thoughts! I do agree! Cheers!
