Does the Tecra have good enough built-in audio that it's worth trying to resolve issues like that? After trying to record onto 3 or 4 different laptops (using both Windows and Linux) I finally broke down and got a USB external "sound card" because the laptops all sounded like they had some kind of bad Walkman preamps in them. Never mind the shared IRQ's or bus stealing. Rob
