Another consideration about IBM clones versus other platforms is, what
else are you going to use the computer for? If, in addition to music,
you want to use the machine for other DOS programs, then you dont't
have much choice. Not that other programs on the Atari or whatever may
not be as good. In some instances they may be. But if you're going to
be exchanging spreadsheets with other people, or word processing
files, or whatever, then you are relating to a world quite apart from
music even though music may be your major application.
