Surround Sound Petition (to Apple)

Let Apple know what we want! Creative is a joke ... we need Apple to address this need (either themselves or by convincing someone else to). Perhaps it'll be done through sw in OS X ... but we've still yet to see anything from it ...

    Online petitions are L A M E



    They don't do anything, companies could care less. Why don't you sit down, write an actual letter and post it to Apple. They'd give it more consideration than an online petition with 500 signatures.

    We could use some audio upgrades, software and hardware. Even if they got a third party to develope better cards that'd be fine.



    I don't think we're going to have to wait that much longer. When I ordered the power wave usb audio I/o (still on Backorder) they assured me that once they wrote the drivers for OSX (apple and Griffin) that it would be 24 bit compatible. audio upgrades are on the way. I'm more certain of that than the G5.

    I am sure hoping they add this soon.. Maybe Apple could add a firewire based sound component? If it were like the Creative Extigy, I think it would do great. They could also base teir new internal built in audio on the firewire specification.

    Just a side note, the picture in that link is a little deceptive. The glowing thing on top is Griffins <a href="http://www.griffintechnology.com/audio/pwrmate.html"; target="_blank">powermate</a>. It's a usb power button for the new keyboards (nice fix, while we're talking about stupid missing features on the mac, we should just have power buttons on the keyboard .)



    Anyway, if anyones interested you can go to the powerwaves page here...<a href="http://www.griffintechnology.com/audio/pwrwave.html"; target="_blank">powerwave product page.</a>



    By the way, Thanks for the feedback link, very on topic.

    I know about the powermate, my power button is right next my keyboard, on a TiBook

    ... and no power button on the powermacs keyboard... what doesn't make sense?
