It worked great in my Quicksilver 2002 under Jaguar and Panther, but turned into a nightmare when I moved to a DP G5. At first the problem was pretty frequent kernel panics. An updated driver got rid of the KP's, but I still had frequent audio distortion. It now resides in a PC, where it produces good sound. I wouldn't recommend it in a Mac, except possibly with an older OS and a single processor.
