It's hard to find light laptop with dedicated controller at a reasonable
price :)
Is it possible to do 8in/8out and 64-sample buffers with RME Multiface
CardBus on a laptop with shared video memory?
And the only one(and expensive one) I found is with nvidia controller
(Sony Vaio VGN-S480). Not sure about nv TurboCache - is it a shared
memory solution?
Seems i want too much to be in one unit.
