I have it. It's been great so far. The software and drivers aren't as bloated as Creative ones.

Just as Leon says, no bloatware, stable WinXP drivers and not like Creative cards which can be picky. Santa Cruz is great for music listening, ok for games {due to using an old Sensaura build}. Fortissimo III a good card which is inexpensive and a step below Santa Cruz, uses a newer Sensaura build.
