Kevin and all,
I've heard that jaws does not work on an intel mac. I'dd liike to be
rong. Also, why not start using what you can off the os right away
and when those other apps come along, you'll be further up the curve.

Hey folks. I'm at a turning point in my career where I need to get
some new gear for my road music rig. Right now, Pro Tools,Logic, and
Garage band aren't accessible with Voice Over, however Gb is more so
than the others. What I'm contemplating is to run Sonar 5with Cake
Talking for now so I can have a bunch of software synths running for
my on-stage performances. Also, I would have a rig goodenough for
doing some basic moble recording that I can fly into my older pro
tools rig back home. What I'm thinking about is getting the fastest
Mac Book Pro on the market, running Bootcamp and putting windows on
it and doing it that way. If in a year and a half or so, if things
look up for music accessibility on the mac side, I can easily move
into that platform without getting another machine. I will be able to
install and run Pro Tools, logic,or whatever on the mac side and
have no problems. What I want to know is does this make sense, does
Jfw work pretty well on the mac with bootcamp? It makes sense to me
because I don't want to buy a PC laptop, when ultimately,I want a Mac
Book because of it's speed and stability. I don't want to dump money
into a machine that runs O S 9, because I can't expand anymore with
the Pro Tools soft synths. Nothing is compadible anymore with Pro
Tools 5. I wantto be able to use the newest soft synths, and be able
to be upgradable, and as oddas it sounds from a guy who loves Pro
Tools, Sonar is the more advanced dog in the pack right now from an
accessibility standpoint. I'd really love your thoughts on this, as
I am looking at drawing up the loan paperwork very soon. Thanks for
any help you can provide.
