I wish some enterprising OS X programmer would come up with a set of drivers that would work with the Audigy and Exitgy line of USB sound "cards" from Creative.
Drivers that offered 5.1 sound, full 96Khz support and support for all the inputs and outputs. The only thing keeping these "cards" from working on the Mac is driver software and Creative has no interest in creating drivers.
