Again, you are confusing "right tool for the job" with your silly prejudices.
Take me for example, I know Stockhausen because I studied him in my fine arts undergraduate degree in Electroacoustic studies at university.
To recap, the question was somewhere along the lines of "how do you prototype music, I have a casio?" not "how do you write a serialist score for a chamber ensemble?"
Even then, The Linux Laptop Orchestra based in the music department at Virgina Tech uses trackers. Of course this isn't the score to Star Wars and a house in Malibu; it is very left field stuff, but it can't be denied that this is serious contemporary practice for anyone in the know.
Thank you conner_bw and jdietrich for covering topic a bit more deeply here. I am open-minded and I like discussions from various PoV. Even if I am only a guy with casio (somehow it sounded like a really lame thing, is it? :>), I happily get to know more about professional-like stuff, as I am perfectionist deep in my heart. But I also almost always try to find the most effective way of what I am doing (and often this finding part takes more time than doing the job, oh well...), like writing scripts for one-time task that could be done quicker by hand, etc.
