The first actually usable Digital Audio Workstation ever made way back in the early 90s to replace the big ass analog audio mixing and recording consoles and add the ability to unto actions (which was impossible with analog tape recording). Thus, it became an industry standard and the new, heavily updated versions are still used in professional studios.
However, by now, with more and more new DAWs being made (such as Ableton Live, Cubase, Reaper, Studio One, etc.), many producers have been switching from Pro Tools due to Pro Tools' pricing being horribly unjustified, workflow being clunky, performance being poorly optimized in comparison and the whole system being too restricted and buggy. And it's only a matter of time before it's not an "industry standard" anymore.

Get the Tool Chestmug. In woodworker's terminology: to Gloat is to be overly excited about a bargain used tool purchase, or wanting to brag and show off a recently acquired product. To put "Gloat" in your thread title, this is a modest means of warning warning others that they may get jealous over your new tool.
"This is my first tool Gloat" (The poster then shows a picture of a several hundred dollar machine they bought on Craigslist for 80% off the closest resale price)
