That is curious. I didn't know that. I go to an art school, studying
music composition, and very few of the students or faculty here know
anything about anything that isn't Apple. I know they do use Macs
even for the internet radio, but then I suspect the school actually
has some kind of deal with Apple.
At any rate, I can't imagine a professional audio studio today being
without some Macs, but I hope Linux can change that. For that to
happen, though, would take lots more application development and
especially interface development.
I can't
speak for either of these programs, but I have not found this
true with other proprietary-free program combinations. The majority
of professionals still use Mac, and expensive software.
curiously, the first of these claims is not true in the broadcast
market, where for some reasons windows seems to have come to dominate.
