If you settle and close your matter civilly (even if it is a criminal matter), you do not have to disclose. Vince Neil of Motley Crue does not have an obligation to disclose his vehicular manslaughter conviction for this reason. There are o

I suspect you would get great enjoyment out of KXStudio [1]. built-in support for Windows VST plugins (via Carla/Vestige). Wine with the WineASIO setup working means that FL Studio (and similar) works flawlessly under JACK. Also, there

My laptop came with linux preinstalled. Same with my netbook. Neither required much work to use linux. A standard Kubuntu (or Chakra) install on any Intel/AMD PC made before June will likely work without hiccups or missing hardware. Mo
