This is good news.

So apparently it's real. What it will be called is up for debate. We will see.

It's real, Or Memorex? UD XL II

None!!

They are pretty cheap now. $699 for 8gb and $899 for the 16gb (both with 256gb hd)

I had not used these in a while so I refrained from comment on how good they were. But I used one of them (can't remember which one) over this past weekend and they do sound great!! But I did notice a cpu hit. With just one instance on the Master Buss.

Might want to ask your wife about this one!! (You gave me another one!!) Hugh, Based on my experience with my old Surface Pro 3 with only 8gb, I never doubted your claims about being amazed at what an 8gb mini could do. It is just some of the claims you made were.. out there. Like AMD and Intel getting left in stone age. Suggesting Apple was doing something new with the page file system that made it possible for the m1 to do what others can't (beat the laws of physics?!!). I will even go so far as to say that if those comment were your attempts at humor, I didn't get it. And I extend my hand in friendship. No hard feelings. But to go out and get a M1 Mini to post test scores and prove a point (because that's what it looks like), borders on petty, and can be construed as vindictive. The one or two people that are thinking about getting a Mini, has their mind made up already. I bet they go with 16gb after reading this thread.

Yep.

Oh that was a good one!!

Have you ever seen Edith!!

There are no mean girls here!! Should have been end of discussion when JIm pointed this out.

Agreed. Exactly!!

There really is no need!!

It can. At least in that video. Now what happens between now and release time is another story!! But Windows Central has said that the Windows 11 name has been confirmed!!! They just never say by who!! [edit] Forgot to add: I'm with Larry. Sure looks more like an Apple OS than a MS OS!!!

She maybe on to something.

Exactly! This is the point you constantly make that has no facts to back them up. And that's when I call BS. Here is another point your constantly making with no facts to back you up.

Hugh, you did suggest that when the loaded vst would hit the 8gb limit, then the M1 would use the ssd/hard drive/page file to "keep things going". Then Jim pointed out that even a good ssd couldn't keep up with ram, thus performance would suffer. That's why I kept suggesting to you to re-read his posts. And no one is bullying you.

I missed out on this. : (

is this address familiar to anyone: 10040 Southridge Terrace, Oklahoma City, OK 73159, USA I ask this because I got a BS email today that is bogus. Here is the email: There are no links in this email except my email address. It's a bogus email for sure. Such a coincidence I get an email like this.

Yep! Thanks Jim for keeping it real!

Ahh.. ok. Now I see the why. Exactly^^^^

Fixed!!

Really!!!? That is some new news to me!! Leads me into a lot of questions and speculation!!

I think the new AMD's are on par if not out performing Intels with single core performance.

I also have an older Surface Pro 3 with 8gb ram and a i7 cpu. I have my DAW loaded on it along with SampleTank 4, EZD2, and other assorted vst. It serves it's purpose as a scratch pad for learning new software, writing songs. And to be honest, I am surprised at how much I can do with it. But it's not my main music maker.
