This year marks 60 years since ENIAC launched the world into the Computing Age. The 'Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer' is well known to be one of the very first electronic computer. It was commissioned on 1943 and was unveiled on February 14, 1946 at the University of Pennsylvania. To celebrate ENIACs birthday, Peen Engineering invites you to use the ENIAC simulator online and to visite the "ENIAC online museum".

Happy Birthday !

Digidesign currently anticipates that in May 2006 it will release versions of Digidesign Pro Tools LE 7 and Pro Tools M-Powered 7 software that are compatible with the new Intel-based MacBook Pro and iMac computers. At the same time, Digidesign will release Intel Mac–compatible versions of all Digidesign and Digidesign-distributed RTAS and AudioSuite plug-ins, plus all software options, including the new Music Production Toolkit for Pro Tools LE and Pro Tools M-Powered systems, as well as the DigiTranslator 2.0 and DV Toolkit 2 options for Pro Tools LE.

Digidesign will continue to support Pro Tools LE and Pro Tools M-Powered software on the PowerPC platform as well. Because neither the MacBook Pro nor the iMac offer the PCI, PCI-X, or PCI Express (PCIe) expansion slots required for Pro Tools|HD systems, Digidesign will not release a new version of Pro Tools HD software for these computers.
