Re: Booting OSX into live profile



by the way,beware fo the Ableton-Korg scam,if u buy Ableton suite and
a nano kontrol which i did you are supposed to get a rebate of
50.00dlls
well in the form that you fill out there is a wrong adress and
telephone number,i realized this after it came back twice,then i
called the phone number on their form as well(Ableton -Korg in
california) and some guy answered and was so annoyed and said he was a
private number.
Then i called Ableton and they said that the promotion was only valid
till last year yet they still have it in their website!
then they told me they would see what they could do and they would
mail me back and never did.
i never got that refund.
cheers
Luis
