Creation station?

Anyone have experience with a sweetwater creation station rack? I know they are a bit more pricy than a build but time is money right now...

I was looking at the 250 rack to use with my FireWire zed r16 & cubase, waves, etc...

I appreciate that- I was actually referring to the actual computers sweetwater makes.

I emailed sweetwater about specs & got no response. Can anyone recommend something off the shelf proven like Dell or hp?

Thanks I saw that once I got off my iPhone. I really want to know fw chipset. Maybe I'll just call Scott @ adk since I'm really happy with my laptop they sold me. But the 18 month financing from sweetwater is very enticing & has helped me in the past with gear purchases when paid on time.

The CS200, 250 and CS450 have a via FW chipset. The CS400 has a TI FWChipset.

The via chipset has worked for me fine without an issue. You could build a PC for audio for the same price and get a lot more. Or even build what they provide for a lot less.

Sandy bridge CPUs are dropping in price, z68 boards aren't to expensive now, you can get the same exact rack pc case they use for $200 I believe.
