FYI, Creative Labs soundcard up to now has earned its place as being the most noisy, distortion riddened and
buggy soundcards made.
Now, you claim we are planted by Aureal to tout the Vortex and A3D and you cannot beleive how we could
knock such a wonderful company as Creative Labs (hahaha).
Well, I say screw Aureal as they have completely abandoned its users in Vortex driver support.
Aureal could have come out with drivers fixes that worked perfect in the first month of driver releases, but instead
they are sitting around with a jar of vaseline playing with themselves and we are screwed.
I also say screw all of Creative Lab's previos products as they were garbage, good riddence.
Let's hope their new SBLive is all they make it out to be.
