Well... most seem to be pretty old at this point. I've seen several cards that went for $400+ USD many years ago selling on EBay in the past few months for $20-$50. This New Media WavJammer was supposed to be a pretty high quality item. >So I bought a EgoSys U2A, this is an excellent external soundcard with >USB-Connection. > >Playback is ok, but for recording a Lib110 with Win2000 is too slow.

As I think Neil pointed out in a post coming up, old 486 systems with 8MB used to be able to record audio pretty darned well. So there may just be some tweaks I need to discover to get this WavJammer going. Not that it's related, but I recall a Phillips tech guy running down a list of tweaks that got a new (at that point) CD-RW drive to stop creating clicks when it wrote audio CDs. I'm hoping I can track down something similar here.
