Tim,

Certainly WINE is not optimized for audio --- no question about that.
Speaking of distractions. Let's admit it: Linux audio is chock full of
distractions, including such things as: Why isn't this compiling? Why
is my system locking up requiring a cold reboot? How bad is the resulting
file damage from using MuSE and jackd together with a 3-D ATI driver which
necessitated a cold reboot? Why can't I hear anything? What was the name
of that damn program again? How did I connect that up the last time?
Linux Audio has a *lot* of distractions. Some might even say it's nothing
but distractions, but I have found GNU/Linux to be an excellent research
platform not only for audio, but also for other fields.
Regards,
Dave.
