I'm just curious, and please don't take this as an invitation to flame, but if you disliked Creative with the Soundblaster 8b-ti, why keep purchasing? (or was it a later card that you had issues with? (I'm just curious, I remember my AWE32, and it was pretty AWEful (
), I stayed away until the era of Audigy as a result))
and the whole Vista debacle I don't think is 100% fair to lay off on them, as nobody else in their competition fared any better (granted, they handled the PR end of it MUCH worse than they should've, and thats 100% their fault (most other companies probably would've offered the guy a job or at least bought the solution, not threatened to bury him with legal action
))
I think it comes down to:
decent product, awful people abilities
sort of like an inverse of Bose if that analogy makes sense

Take this from Creative owner going back to Soundblastter ISA 8 bit, I won't be buying another Creative card. |
