I saw them for around $80 (rounding) on some online stores. I forget how
much the SB Live! cards are, but I'm just trying to get away from Creative
Labs for a change.
It's a pretty feature-rich card but it doesn't have the 6-channel drivers
available for those trying to do positional audio.
I suspect I probably won't notice the difference in my strictly
two-channel setup, but the fact that I don't have to get drivers from CL
in binary form is an added benefit.
