It's good, and cheap, and I do appreciate that they've supported free driver development. I've bought 2 of their cards because of that. However, the card isn't really appropriate for my needs. The system will be an MP3 server so I need an unamplified line-out port (as it will eventually plug in to a stereo amp) and a good line-in. The 4DWave's line-in is pretty bad. Definitely not something I'd use to record music from an audio tape. It seems as though Creative is pretty good about releasing driver info on most of their cards. There's a lot of support for them in ALSA, in any case. They get pretty expensive, though. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
