Just a quick comment about creating this page. I know there is a lot of discussion about listing 'flash-in-the-pan' distros. I am aware that these guys are marginal, but they seem to be off to a good start and are developing this for 64-bit workstations. There are plans for paid support but the actual software is free as with all other variations of Debian.

Anyway, I have nothing to do with 64Studio-- I just have spent a lot of time trying to make some of my expensive audio hardware work under Linux and it is generally still quite difficult. This distribution could make someone's life a bit easier so I think it is useful here. Doubtless, it would be helpful to have more information, but really everything is contained in discussions about realtime-audio in linux, debian itself, etc. This distribution is just a result of a particular view of these topics.

Finally, although this will become something of a commercial link in the future, there is currently nothing for sale at 64studio.com

Any changes or comments short of completely deleting this page are quite welcome-- I am more than aware of how limited this stub currently is. Matthew 06:44, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

32 bit PC's are legacy? Lunarctic 04:26, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

lol! When discussing linux drivers, legacy seems to refer to any PC hardware that will not be experiencing significant changes in the future (and therefore the hardware is relatively static). See Legacy system. --Matthew K 02:06, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
