That's good to know, altough I just upgraded my 650 with the use of my company laptop
running win XP. Also a midisport usb interface used. The midisport driver installation was
trouble some, and still everytime i plug it in, win XP still says found new hardware and the
installation wizard appears, but I got it working at least.
Non of such nonsense happens on Mac OS ( X ) in my 18 year of mac experience so far,
and I would just hope that the updater would be ported to that OS, so I can update using
my macs, and leave Windows only for work, I have a G4 based powerbook, and will
eventually get a new Intel based Macbook Pro, but don't want to run Windows on it if I can
help it, but if all else fails it will save me having to drag two laptops around.
So Paul, as a new years present,could we have an OSX version of the VM updater as
universal binary please, so PPC and Intel Macs can use it :-)
