Subtle designs that you may not notice right away, but lessons the fatigue while working. At just 3 cm thick and weighing under 5lbs, carrying around your M-Series will be a breeze.Art of Performance So esthetically pleasing to look at and power to boot, you almost wish you didn’t have to take it out of the studio. But when you show up to do work and take the M-Series out of the case, whoever’s in the room will know you mean business by the looks alone. When you push the power button located within the hinge of the laptop and the MusicXPC Windows 7 screen comes up, they’ll know that this is no ordinary computer. They’ll ask you can you really run all those tracks with virtual instruments and plugins and not worry about the CPU overloading. You’ll quietly nod to yourself knowing that it’s capable of the task at hand and it makes you look good while doing it. That’s the art of performance. |
