some guys got xp to boot on the imac intel. Google it, you'll find it.

Even if you got the virus called xp to load and run, it wouldn't be able to comunicate with any of the drivers for anything. can't play games, can't play audio, pretty much useless.

If you had a clean, low noise, signal going into your 002r then you should be pretty good. Even better if you recorded it at 24bit. This is one of the things that is cool about digital recording. There isn't any tape noise in there to make louder, just the signal you recorded. If you recorded it wit...
