Walt, sorry but I didnt mean just software, the combination of the 2..
Mostly other hardware setups..
Im was just sick of every time I updated software OS,FCP etc, I would loss function with my exteranl hardware, aka Cinewave
Or have to wait for the 3rd party to come up with an update.
All in all if you like what you have and dont have any problems stick with it..
You just have to aware of different updates and such, a problem you didnt really have to deal with 5 years ago..
Now we have new software coming out evey 3 months it seems..
