Re: Looping Beginner Seeks Help

Thanks to all once again! I'm going to check out the Mobius program, follow all the advice that's been given here, and try to find a way of looping that works best for my needs and personality. 
One last question I have is whether Mobius will work in Windows Vista? I think I may need to purchase a new laptop to get myself going (my old one is on its way out), and it seems XP is no longer pre-installed these days.
