No! Not *too* negative. Just negative enough! ;-)

Anyway, it's fun to talk. I figure there are so many people here. I'm
a home studio guy. You work pro. Other guys play live - rock, jazz,
country. There are so many perspectives and there are LOTS of
lurkers... (Hi Digi folks from an ex-ProTool'er...)  Who knows where a
conversation like this might lead?

Anyway, I was thinking the SAWStudio guys aren't stupid so they seem
to think there's a proddut in this area, and from what I saw all they
had over Ardour was a name and a marketing channel. Just an idea.

Again, I took no offense to anything you said.

Cheers,
Mark
