I've used it. I liked it. I saw the price change, it's worth it. I was really happy with the pres, I'm sure some jerk-off will pop in and tell me they are shit pres, but I liked them, you may, too.
Perhaps give it a try by buying it from a local GC for the price MF lists, if you don't like it, bring it back, you have 30 days.
I'm sure it will be the greatest thing since sliced bread for ME. I've been using an old Gina20 PCI card and a Fostex MR-8 so the leap to 24bit should be a big improvement.
