That's my experience. Outside of the Linux audio community, I haven't met a

musician who was interested in computers for their own sake. Generally, I

find musicians relate to computers as other artists do - as a tool which they

expect to 'just work' - or as something arcane and unreliable, and best

avoided altogether.

I never said any of those things. I'm optimistic that Linux will soon provide

reliable creative tools that are widely accessible - not something we've ever

had before. I bet a Linux box now costs less in real terms than one decent

open reel tape recorder did in the 1950s.
