Blog EntryI'm Computer Illiterate. So Help Me!Apr 18, '07 11:52 PM
for everyone
Mood: Blur
Listening To: Nickelback - Rockstar









Okay.  So here's the thing.  I only know how to use and kill a computer.  Of course, having a WoW freak under the roof isn't a bad thing as he's the one maintaining the computers.

But then again, when it comes to 32-bit graphics and 64-bit graphics, that's when I'll slit my wrists and die the next day.

So, I kind of checked the specs and requirements for both Reason 3.0 and Adobe Audition 1.5:

Adobe Audition 1.5

-- 400 MHz or faster processor (2 GHz or faster processor recommended)

-- Microsoft Windows 2000 or Windows XP Professional or Home Edition

-- 64 MB RAM (512 MB or more recommended)

-- 75 MB of available hard-disk space (700 MB recommended for installing optional audio clips)

-- 800 x 600 color display (1024 x 768 display recommended)

-- Stereo sound card (multitrack sound card recommended)

-- CD-ROM drive (a CD-RW drive is required for audio CD creation)

-- Microsoft DirectX 9.0 or later required for video import

-- Speakers or headphones recommended

-- Microphone (optional)


Reason 3.0
  • Intel Pentium III 600 MHz or better
  • 256 MB RAM
  • 2 GB free hard disk space
  • CD-ROM drive
  • Windows XP/2000 or later
  • Monitor with 800x600 pixels resolution or better
  • 16-bit windows compatible audio card, preferably with DirectX or ASIO drivers
  • Recommended: MIDI keyboard with built-in MIDI interface, or MIDI keyboard and MIDI interface









According to this link here, it says that both Audition 1.5 and Reason 3.0.4 works fine.  Best thing is that I forgot what version was my Reason.  I know it's a 3.0, but I'm unsure if it's a 3.0.4 or not..

Sheesh

And what's up with all of this 32-bit programmes?  I'm getting a little bit confused now.. It says that Adobe Photoshop 7.0 32-bit is compatible..And what the hell is that supposed to mean?  T.T

And.. Uh.. Does anybody have personal comments and views regarding Windows Vista?  Pros and Cons?  I know the GUI is totally different compared to Windows XP, ME, 2000, 98 and 95.. Anything regarding audio restrictions?  Lol










I feel like a dumbass now.  Lol

When it comes to servicing and all that, I think it'll be convenient for me to get a lappie from house of notebooks - where they sell everything in vista -.-

then again..the GUI is the silent salesman..very attractive.. I suppose I'm getting suckered, but then again.. I'll need to stick to my roots ... I'll stick to XP lah.. fuck Vista.. too many glitches, incompatible softwares, and all that junk..

edmund..where's the place you sourced out the laptops? Waiting for you to come back..will talk to my dad regarding this matter..

You should have asked me earlier bro, im a tech expert. lols. self-declared one though. Anyway. VISTA is not completely stable, there are still some bugs and compatibility issues, it's also a resource sucker thanks to the new Aero GUI. It's not worth it, and it's rather complicated as I see it. Tried Vista personally, and I don't like it at all, it only looks bling bling with all the HD and Aeron stuff, but like I said before, it sucks the resource outta your system. If you're going to get a laptop with Vista for recording and photoshop-ing, i think you'll probably need like 2Gbs of ram and a good processor. I'd stick to XP if I were you bro.
glacius wrote on Apr 20, '07
I knew that whole Aero GUI crap took up a lot of resources.. like you said..bling bling. Lol..
