Ouch!(

That hurts just to read it Bill! There's plenty of iSub folks out in Apple Land who feel just like you do. Pretty stupid to not include drivers for them in the new OS, I mean RREAALLY!::o
Personally, there's a LOT about the Leopard OS that strikes fear and loathing into me, even though I've upgraded everything here but the wife's iMac Core 2 Duo 2.0Ghz ...she won't let me touch her computer, tells me "Just leave MY Mac alone!" 10.4.11 is a really nice system to jump from into the uncharted waters of Leopard.8-)
I don't like the Epson printer dialogue. I don't like Pages or Cover Flow or Spaces, all that eye candy I could do without. Time Machine, I just don't trust it yet, but I'm using it anyway instead of my beloved SilverKeeper nightly backups, 9 years worth of that. Perhaps there's something good that I'm missing but it's just so radical of a change in the OS that it's really taking me some getting used to.
Well, I can tell you that there's always a Logitech sound system in your future, if you want to really score the best system(s) for the $$ out there. I've been using their sound system with my G5 Dual Core 2.3Ghz (PCI Express) since I got the machine, running a 3-into-1 Radio Shack headphone adapter kit into my Sound Out analog port, with the Logitech 3-dongles plugged into it. Sounds Awesome! The bass sub-woofer could break my studio's windows if I cranked it up past 7, I assure you. (
It's called the Logitech Z-5300E THX-Certified 6-speaker sound system (5 35/39RMS Watt satellites and the BIG sub-woofer putting out 100W RMS=280W RMS/560W Peak Power), and it can be had for only $137.91 shipped/delivered from ZipZoomFly.com:

If you need less, they have nice smaller systems too. Might as well kiss the iSub system good-night Irene and play another fiddle about now...just a suggestion I came up with for you. Sorry to hear them go, but this type of progress is permanent, and stifling.
