This may be posted in the incorrect topic, sorry.

 

I'm in love with these forums now! I'm new, so I'll start by saying thanks to all the helpful members of this forums and creators of this project. I'm coming over from Ubuntu and this has been a lot of fun.

 

The main problem I've had with Ubuntu though is the lack of popular recording programs and Wine works, but never to the degree that was satisfying.

 

I have an old Dell Latitude D600 that I had laying around with a 1.6ghz Intel Pentium M w/ only 512mb of RAM. It has a Realtek AC97 onboard audio. And using K-way 10.5.1 install if that matters.

 

I installed Reason 4.0 build 905 without the slightest issue! Installed so quickly that I was nervous and skeptical of it working, but to my surprise it was flawless. Demo song loaded right up and played every track perfectly. It seems too good to be true.

 

The Wiki of OSx86 says that 3.0.5 was the supported version(If you contribute to the wiki, it should be upgraded). Although I did quickly throw my AKAI MPD16 into it without seeing if it needed any special drivers and no luck. But that could just be because it has propriety drivers.

 

Now onto Ableton Live 7.03!

I haven't come across a single DAW that doesn't work.

 

I've been using Logic Pro for ages now, all my AU's work perfectly too. Install away... you'll have no issues as long as all your harware has the proper kexts loaded you'll be fine.

yeah after looking around music production forums I'm realizing that. I never though that it would be so easy! I figured that Apple would be a little more stringent on their software since they lock you into everything so avidly.
