So I just installed Windows 7 via Boot Camp for fun and WOW... Reaper runs infinitely better on Windows than it does on OSX. I am so used to the way it operates on a Mac that I forgot how beastly and efficient it is on Windows. Custom macros that crash Reaper on OSX relentlessly if you try and do them too fast blaze by on Windows! I have a custom split macro that will crash Reaper guaranteed on OSX if I hit undo 3 or 4 times rapidly after running the macro a handful of times, whereas on Windows I can literally hold down the key command for the macro and make 1000 splits, then hold down the undo key and watch it undo everything with absolutely zero hiccups...
This has sealed the deal for me regarding buying/building a PC as my permanent non-mobile studio rig... OSX is still the king for me for general computing but man Reaper is so so so so so so much better on Windows...
