Is that 1 ft hot dogs or 1 lb? I thought hot dogs like that came 1 ft long and not 1 lb heavy.

 

[beatmix01]

[orion7144]

I sold one in the FS forum for $3. The new ob sound is 5.1 or 6.1 digital.

"not really that hot"
post something hotter then! i'll be waiting...

 

[Steven the Leech]

Actually this is pretty hot. Especially if you are in need of a decent sound card.

 

[Knightlife]

Yeah, I've always been a fan of non on-board sound considering things like my Live! let me have multiple audio streams at once, take pressure of the CPU better than on-board (I believe), etc. This sounds pretty good, especially for a linux box as someone said before.

Maybe, but "this" isn't under $10 out the door! Someone who needs an okay sound card will appreciate the post, and thread crappers need not reply.
