Tell you what. Go over to http://line6.com/software/ - You convince them to produce a Linux version of the software for their musician's gear, and I'll get rid of the Toshiba laptop running Windows. Alternatively, find me an OSX laptop that costs anywhere near the $400 I paid for the Toshiba Satellite. (And yes, I already tried running their software in a VM, neither VirtualBox or VMWare does a good enough job of emulating MIDI-over-USB2 to let the drivers in the VM connect to my Pod HD, so don't bother suggesting that). You want to repeat your claim that I'm an unprofessional, unethical moron because I have a fully patched Windows 10 laptop that's backed up on a regular basis because there's no realistic alternative?
