pussies
hey, it's not that i'm afraid to do it, i just don't really know that it'd be worth it.
I have 2 desktops at home, which i can use for gaming, etc... i wont really want to use this laptop for anything other than taping. I also have a compaq laptop at work that i take on business trips, i can use that too if i need to.
But the new lifebook i got will just be for taping/burning/resampling, etc...
It has a 40Gig Hard drive, and i will be doing 24/48 not 24/96 so i'll be ok with about 1gig per hour of record time.
What specific benefits will I see by creating the dual boot setup? It seems i'll need to install 2k first, so that will mean un-installing XP (which came pre-installed on the machine). It will mean probably losting utilities/features such as McAfee virus check, etc...
When i'm travelling, it's possible that I will use the lifebook to go on the internet, and it will definitely be used to watch dvd movies WIDESCREEN
on planes, etc when travelling. Otherwise, it will be used for recording and that's about it.
so, in my situation, does it make sense to go through all of that hassle?
damon, what soundcard/interface are you using to do 24/96? I picked up a vx pocket a few months ago on sale for $199.
I figured it was a steal so get it while it's hot. So i did.
It limits me to 24/48 which im thinking will be plenty good.
+T! It's a sweet fuckin' notebook!!! i love how the cd burner just pops out and you can pop that battery in!
now i just gotta figure out if it will drain the main battery first and then the 'modular'... and if i will be able to switch the main battery while the computer is running... if you've alredy found the answers to these questions, let me know!
peace,
ian
