lets not kid ourselves. there is a *tiny* potential customer base for the next several years at least, and the existing customer base is even smaller. the customer base for audio chipsets in things like laptops and off-the-shelf desktops is quite a bit larger, but anything that's actually a serious audio interface has a linux customer base that can probably be counted in the low hundreds, if that. or so it seems to me. even if i'm wrong, i suspect that even the most optimistic vision of the customer base doesn't justify the investment these kind of inertia-bound companies think they have to make to get into Linux. --p _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
