Holy crap! 116 viewing this article at 10:30pm MST, and about 30 links from other sites linking to this thread. Amazing, never seen anything like it.
Oh, and I'm currently proud to not own a single Creative product. Haven't since the 90's .EDIT: 30 ref-backs I guess, looks like many are dupes from the same threads in the other links. Still....amazing.

I've never been happy with my X-Fi (although some research on my part before I bought it would have helped. X-Fi + Nforce 4 is no good) but this might be enough to make me try out one of the new ASUS boards or something comparable in my next build. I own Creative sound card and a Creative MP3 player and both have suffered greatly since I moved over to Vista. Although I'm not as outraged as some over this whole fiasco, it might be enough to make me reconsider doing business with a company I'm already not especially happy with.

I hope this makes my card worth like $500.

Whether or not all these threads and posts are justified, there is no doubt that they will create a stir. I am really curious to see what happens to their stock price and also whether or not this mess could possibly get any attention from the mainstream media.

It wouldn't be surprising if they said something like "Consumers are in a uproar over creative's driver support, forums around the net are raising up and signing petitions, etc, etc" I doubt they'd actually say any site names
