How many characters does this comment box allow? I'll start with the installation/authorization process including all the factory plugs, the dongle, the incompatibility with 64 bit (I'll take Vista or Win7 please), the closed hardware system...how much time do you have?

I'm thinking about getting a mac rig and switching to Logic...but that will come after I finish building my isolated basement multi-purpose/single room project studio.
