A friend of mine has put a lot of effort into making a music career over
the last 6 years. He went with Windows from the beginning, bought
fully-equipped systems from places like Sweetwater. Had nothing but
problems (including problems trying to use the Delta 1010LT included in
the system). Problems he couldn't resolve. Problems he kept having to
call Sweetwater about, until they hit problems they couldn't resolve. He
went through 3 different systems and had the same thing happen.

Sounds to me like audio sucks on most any platform. ;-)
