In fact some of the IRCAM researchers are interested in Apple Macs,
so your assumption, while probable, may be unfounded.  Other
"serious" computer music researchers are interested in MIDI and
have made MIDI boards for Suns.

I am in favour of feeding net.music.synth to Europe.  There are
other computer music sites besides IRCAM but I don't know which
ones are connected to Usenet.  net.music.synth has a lower
drivel quotient than most net groups.
