Using Planet-CCRMA is not really an option for me. It does look
interesting though and I will probably try it out for fun.
I have many good reasons for wanting to stay solely on an XP platform:
1) Years of experience & skills that center around WinXP only audio
software.
2) Tons o' cash sunk into XP only audio software.
3) Oodles of money sunk into gear that probably wouldn't run at all on a
linux platform. (Digi002, Tascam FW-1884 etc...)
4) I don't want to have to learn a whole new operating system and all
its peculiarities.
5) I do not want to have to depend on 2 seperate computers (one XP & one
Linux) to work on one project. It would be inefficient and distracting.
Surely others have come to this forum asking to get CLM working on XP.
My question and problems can't be all that unusual, XP doesn't vary too
much. Basically there is SP1 & SP2 and that is it. I would think there
are many potential CM/CLM users who have XP only and who will give up on
CM/CLM due to lack of any documentation about getting it working on XP.
If I can get help figuring out how to get CLM working I would be more
than happy to create a web page explaining how other XP users can
accomplish it.
So it's too hard to add a hard drive and install Linux on it and dual boot?
I run Windows XP Pro very seldom, only to play games and I very seldom
do that.
You enjoy wasting money more than running a real OS? Avoid Windows Vista
is all I can say. Linux works for me and it just cost me the price of
burning a few CDs.
