has proven to be both stable and secure, compared to other common
operating systems."
Any idea what audio interface it uses and where the source code can be
downloaded?
I just thought that it was a bit interesting.
Anyone want to take bets
on how long it will be before DigiDesign switches over? ;-)
That would be great, it would require them to open source their drivers.
Why do you assume this? There are plenty of closed-source
applications and drivers running on top of Linux.
