Speaking of which, is one of these machines likely to be useable as an
audio workstation. One of my sons is getting into recording his music and
we're currently using the laptop as the most powerful machine in the
house. It works reasonable well but a serious setup looks like being
worth having at this stage. Are server machines likely to have the
necessary? Probably would use a USB pre-amp for the inputs so sound card
may not be an issue...
