Testing the Audigy

An Anonymous Coward writes: "The Audigy is Creative's latest Soundcard range, a long overdue upgrade to the aging Live! range and coming in a year where Creative have faced some of their stiffest competition since the Aureal Vortex 2 was released. 3D Spotlight's complete review of the Audigy Player covers pretty much everything you will want to know, from Drivers to API Support, Connectivity & Performance Conclusions." The review doesn't mention how the Audigy works under any open source operating systems, though.

      But you are a panty-waisted anonymous coward. On the basis of that observation I confiscate your first post and award it Cyborg Monkey below (we haven't seen enough of him lately). When you take the time to think up a name and login you will be permitted to keep your first posts. WOOT!

    The worst terrorist attack in recorded history occurred in September, followed by a deadly and bloody WAR against the Islamic faith (against the holiest of Muslim clerics and scholars, the beloved Taliban leaders of the Afghanistan people) and now we're struggling to bring order to Afghanistan with the establishment of an interim government, as well as tightening the noose over the Al Qaeda group (a terrorist cell with possibly the coolest name around) in the mountains of Tora Bora, and you people have the gall to be discussing sound cards???? My *god*, people, GET SOME PRIORITIES!

    The bodies of the thousands of innocent civilians who died (and will die) in these unprecedented events could give a good god damn about innovative audio products from Creative Labs, your childish Lego models, your nerf toy guns and whining about the lack of a "fun" workplace, your Everquest/Diablo/D&D fixation, the latest Cowboy Bebop rerun, or any of the other ways you are "getting on with your life" (here's a hint: watching Cowboy Bebop in your jammies and eating a bowl of Shreddies is *not* "getting on with your life"). The souls of the victims are watching in horror as you people squander your finite, precious time on this earth playing video games!

    You people disgust me!

    The human mind is far from backwards compatible. Have you ever tried to sit through a movie like Mousetrap. Kids eat that stuff up.

    Yea, I agree, you should be able to pee whereever you want in the swimming pool. And not have to go over to the damn peeing section which is already a bit too warm, in order to pee without getting yelled at.

    You really should do something about that Asperger syndrome of yours. Have a Ritalin or something.
