Hi Joe, Like Vinny said, there's the issue of the card itself. Also, I can never remember which is which but there's a significant difference between the D-Control and the D-Command. One is akin to the basic control surface while the other is in the Icon family. Based on the price, I'm thinking it's the more basic of the two we're talking about, especially considering the price range. Still, it sounds like a pretty good deal. I wonder what kind of card is included, if any., would it be an original HD? HD Accel? Accel PCIe? A little more info and we could weigh in a little more meaningfully.
