Ethernet streaming and occasional white noise on Windows

[Confused]

Sorry, but I can't resist commenting on a series of threads in this site. I notice that so many D-users are proud in integrating the most expensive cables for digital interconnects, even employing hilariously expensive network patch cables. At the same time there is a decent number of D-users who feed their Ds from "cheapo" Win-PCs, which for a few produce white, yellow, rosé, brown or other coloured noise due to a potential flaw in AIR. As a simple solution to this problem, I am wondering why these victims of AIR don't simply change their Win-PCs to a decent Mac, given that this change comes considerably cheaper than many of the cables... OOPS, of course I don't mean anybody personally, just a point to consider    ;-))

But of course, the sets of the expensive cable users and the 'cheapo' PC users may not overlap.

There have been quite a few grumpy Mac users on here recently with various noise and software update issues .........
