Never owned one, but I've played around with one at a store. Maybe I can answer a few simple questions. Also, check the Emulator Archive website--they have *TONS* of information about all of Emu's products.
IMHO the Emulator III is probably the best sounding sampler of all time. Once they got the bugs worked out that is.

Thats what everyone keeps telling me. I have a line on a EIII Rack (Not EIIIX) which is pretty rare from what I hear

I have one I bought a year ago and have used it 2 times total.
I bought it for a project that never materialized.
I know VERY little, but HAVE navigated it enough to make it work.
Mine does not have the digital ins. It has one small internal drive and one external scsi with a big library of CDs.
Ask away!

Keep in mind that if something goes wrong you'll probably never get it fixed. TONS of proprietary IC's and circuitry. Also, it may be tricky finding RAM to expand the memory. If you're used to dealing with software samplers (like I am nowadays) going back to the old button/menu interface method. Also don't forget the 16 voice polyphony seems fairly skimpy these days.
Definately think about getting an old computer and some sound design software that interfaces with the EIII if you can.
I'd say that unless you are looking for a *VINTAGE* (or specifically hardware) sampler that maybe you'd be better off with software. However, if you want an older sampler (or hardware sampler) I would say that the EIII is the best, along with the Prophet 3000 (almost impossible to find).
