It's pretty clear by now that their "reference" computer transports - pretty much uniformly Macs - are not much of a reference. When your "reference" is consistently beaten by the item under review, it's probably time to ditch it - in favor of one of those items, for instance.I get the concepts of "ease of use", "slick and attractive", "sounds better than CD transport from 90's", "ability to play hi-rez" etc., that attract users with beginner-to-moderate computer skills to Apple - but the time to move on was, like, yesterday.
