have to say until vista i was always a fan of creative, but because of the vista issues i never did get a X-Fi. I was thinking of getting one soon, but not if there is no decent drivers. Bad decision by Creative, and i hope euro suppliers like Komplett follow the example of Newegg

That is because I saw it on theconsumerist, reddit, digg (of course), and some ass won't quit spamming the OP @ Creative.... elsewhere, I dunno but it seems many of the linkbacks are other forums.

EDIT: Also on the front page of http://boycottcreative.com

This "MJC420" Guy is spamming this thread all over the net. All those new linkbacks are basically just that guy spamming. We asked him to stop yesterday but we have no clue who he is on OCN.

Possible to do a IP check and infract this guy for spamming or something? Its going to give OCN a bad name if he keeps spamming the creative forums.

Great publicity for OCN. Best forum I've been to IMO, maybe others will get a chance to see its greatness.

Hopefully some decent drivers come out of this mess as well. An apology from Creative would be nice as well, at the very least.

I offered for the DanielK Drivers but that got rejected, along with 10-15 of my rep.

Granted he has spammed in there, and I told him to stop the nonsense several times (so have others), but many of the link backs are from other sites where reputable members of the third-party site linked back to us.... word just travels fast; don't let "MJC" think he had any real part in it.... he is a tool.

I know everyone is now boycotting Creative, but has anyone thought of what sound cards they will buy if Creative goes bankrupt? I also think that throwing out perfectly good sound cards is a total waste of money and the people that do it are just plain stupid. If you're not happy with the product, send it back, don't snap it in half.
