Why spend money at a software store when you can get top-of-the-line products for free? If you can buy it, GNU's got 30 products that'll work just the same, if not better.

Oh, I wish that were true. I'm still waiting for pro-sound, multitracking, editing and mastering for audio apps are out for linux. There's nothing out now that can compare with Native Wave or Cakewalk Pro 9.0 and up in the Linux world. I'm waiting/hoping/looking but it ain't happening yet.

There's not even proper driver support for all my hardware for me to consider using Linux yet. I wanna...lawd, how I wanna get away from M$. But till the apps are out that get done what I need...I'm stuck with Billy and his Redmond gang.
