@dentaku: All Microsoft products that are consumer focussed must have a superior audio experience going forward, as music is such a huge part of everyones lives, from those that create. it to those that listen.

I use my Traktor S4 (sometimes - when I am not on my Technics SL1210 MK2's) and I am yet to experience a failure in Windows 7. I would have got a MacBook if I'd had the public humiliation of an OS failure, BSOD or Restart. Stability and quality are paramount.
