Most amateurs wouldn't know where to start when reading an 80 track recall sheet. But all of them can double click a Pro Tools session file icon. Many people are working with mid/low-level acts that want to save cash and guitar center tells them its as easy as an MBox and a good computer. If they take their business home and it sucks, you still lost potential money ($500 here, $300 there, $1000 here...) And when you're working day to day to pay rent, that is can be a significant blow.
Sorry all for taking this thought maybe too far and straying a bit from the OP. Rock.

If you engage the "Suck Button" on a (insert name of cheap gear-bashing fodder here) and no one can hear a difference through the noise floor and crosstalk, does it still make a sound? Steve Jobs can kiss my ass with his arrogant, expensive, proprietary hardware. -Sqye |
