Wow. I'd never heard of MusicXPC. Now I know why.
For $2,799, you can have a system built around a Core 2 quad core processor,
DDR2 memory, and still using a front-side bus. Oh, and Windows XP. That is
extremely out of date, and probably not worth half what they're asking. Even
their dual processor system uses only DDR800. If they're going to charge prices
like that, they should at least use current tech.
PC Audio Labs is better for the same money. Specs to price are good. They don't
list the manufacturer of some components, though. For example, I really hope
they use Seagate enterprise class drives, and not retail/one year warranty
junk. I'd suggest them over this MusicXPC place, any day, though.
DD sells customized workstations from ADK. If you didn't buy from DD, though,
I'd rather see you get a system from someone like Jim Roseberry's company.

Subject: [ddots-l] Urgent Attention! Something's Happening
Hi, it's Annabelle
Something's happening that doesn't seem right. I go to record in Sonar,
and after a few minutes of recording, the whole machine goes to a blue screen
and shuts down then restarts itself. After restarting, it gives me the
Microsoft Windows Error. What the heck is up with that? This hasn't happened
until now, but it seems to happen around the same time twice a year, in the
summer and in the winter. What do I do next? I'm trying to invest in a desktop,
but now it's a tossup between whether I want to have the MusicXPC S series, or
the PC Audio Labs Rock Box. It seems the one at PC Audio Labs is cheaper than
the one at MusicXPC. What's up with that? Could it be that because MusicXPC is
based in Canada, everything's more expensive there?
