I don't see a price on there, but yeah that would work great, however it all depends on his budget. If he really has money, I would buy a nice mixing board, a nice amp and a nice preamp, then he could have himself a nice little studio.

I'd go for a Xeon if it's going to be data crunching all of the time, they're stable (good for a workstation, which this is) and when it comes to such tasks it's supposed to excel, plus they do a quad core version.

I like apple, but for this sort of stuff i won't go for them. Agree with they are better for videos.

Windows will support most software and it would be hard to find stuff the compatible with an "apple workstation / or product".

Nooo, computer speakers do NOT stack up at all against high quality professional speakers. That set of Logitech will be blown away by a good setup.

Sure if you wanna spend more than $2,000!!! Logitech rocks and you cant say they dont!! Trust me those speakers are better than what you think. They will blow away some piece of shit $1,000 bose setup or something like that.
