Rain AMD processor-based Solstice Audio Workstation: A Balance of Price and Performance
Ringwood, NJ, August 24, 2007 – Rain Recording has announced their first AMD (NYSE: AMD) processor-based audio workstation called Solstice. Solstice workstations are a new addition to Rain’s line of computers built specifically for the demanding needs of professional ¬audio and video production.
