Cheers to Mr. Sen. who has definetly made an attempt to take atleast a few steps to begin with. Most others would cover their tracks and bolt everything shut. For audio apart from whatever training one may impart please take the following precaution in hardware procurement 1) Purchase pcs or mobos whose sound has been checked for the required audio performance. You will be shocked at the audio quality of most mobos and branded pcs. 2) If you need multiple channels specify Delta 1010 sound card alongwith the above PC. 3) Note that PC brands are not a criteria. One will have to check the mobos + sound card actual performance. This is because doze workarounds abound with bad hardware, but linux is not tailored for individual idiocity of every manufacturer.
