Does anyone use Note Caddy with it? Any good?

very interested in this too
i think hem2 does not perform better than hem1 but this app could be the dealbreaker

Thanks man. My library in that department is very small atm cos I've only recently started getting into it, but once I get hold of more stuff I'll start doing some more mixes and hopefully will get a bit better at it. Here's a drum and bass mix that I did which I think turned out better than the dubstep one.

When you guys talk performance, are you refering to overall speed/slowing down of your system, unreliabilty due to crashes/HUD not working or are you refering to stat x and y are not properly calculated?

Game of Thrones so awesome. Combines Sean Bean with massive bloodshed, Tommy Carcetti from The Wire, Hollyoaks slags as whores gettin their tits out, and dragons n ****.

Some people seem to love it, others find they just can't use it.

I haven't had any problems with Hem2 in months fwiw

ya i mean, what feature does it have that really makes it much more valuable than hem1? i can think of one crucial thing thats missing, but havent found (to be fair havent looked) anything that good.

Ok, I'm Mac naive. Can you please outline and justify the increased cost, decreased computing power, decreased graphics (no gaming), and time lost due to learning curve (new platform) in the purchase of a macbook pro over say an asus G74SX-RH71 (link: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applicatio...718&CatId=3998). From what I'm seeing, I can spend $1,500 and get a decent gaming laptop and poker machine. Or spend $2,500+ (currently priced macbook pro) to get something somewhat close to an equivalent macbook (crappier graphics card, 2/3 the ram, worse harddrive, have to run stars / HEM in VMware fusion...are you kidding me????).

I mean the rumor that it has more resolution is nice, but its just a rumor at this point.....and so what? are you going to sit 3" from the screen to play 24 tables (vs saving 1k on the cost of the macbook pro and buying a 30" dell and hooking that up to the ASUS). Also I don't want to hear that it doesn't get virus', malware. That's not a huge issue for me as I don't spend my days cruising porn (opening self up for meme destruction with this one I know).

Just trying to get an honest informed decision please. My current mobo is dying I think and I need to purchase a new laptop sooner rather than later. Thanks.
