   My read has them equal in I/O: 8 analog with pre's, 2 via SPDIF, and 16 
via 2 ADAT optical.  Adds up to 26.  The M-Audio unit mentioned that only 
18 were supported under pro-tools.  I have no idea if a similar limitation 
will be present in the Linux driver if/when it appears. (Might be due to 
limited bandwidth in ADAT, if I remember correctly, it can only carry 4 
channels at some higher sample rates).  Variation seems to be in 
flexibility of standalone mixer capability via onboard DSP.
