That's generally always been true, but don't forget that "low spec hardware" is not what it was. Rosegarden didn't get along well with low spec hardware, back when "high spec" meant a 1GHz P3 with 256 meg of RAM and a dedicated soundcard. But it got along OK with that "high spec" machine, provided your low-latency kernel and all that crap were in order and you didn't try doing any serious audio. The difficulty, as always, is in that proviso. (The machine I targeted STG at originally was a bit lower-spec than that, for what it's worth, and I could get work done on that.) > Anyway, to this new Chris, I'm afraid I have to say that it is totally > pointless to do anything right now except work on the Qt4 port.

I agree that it's pointless to do new development in trunk, but bug fixes there are still welcome. There will definitely be a 1.7.3 at some point -- if nobody else puts it together, I will. Even if the Qt4 port gets to the "compiling and running" stage in short order now, it will still be easily some months before it's stable and well-tested enough to replace 1.7. And I still promise that any fixes in 1.7.3 will be ported across to Qt4 after that branch builds.
