[Fmpro] gigastudio4/ GVI4

[Chris Alpiar]

Ok maybe ill go with xp 64 bit then. I just have these computers running
gigastudio 3 orchestra only, no other apps ever, so the idea is just to get
64 bit OS and get more ram so giga can run more more more haha. Not sure if
vista or xp 64 is the way to go yet, but my question is more regarding
gigastudio then windows ;)

Thanks for the reply!

Chris
