Hi Derek: I tested the card with an HP Omnibook 4150. The digital input came from the SPDIF output from an SBLive in my desktop machine. I used ecasound for recording, the OS was tuned for low-latency, and the recordings were flawless. Alas, my laptop died recently and I haven't been able to test the card further, but I don't hesitate recommending it. Btw, I did have to get a CF to PCMCIA adapter and an appropriate connector. HTH... Best, == dp
