I bought my emagic 6|2m 2nd hand for 180 € and I am very happy with it,
except it doesn't run with 2.4.x kernels and I couldn't try it with
2.6.x kernel, because my Asus M2400N Notebook needs a patch with the
actual vanilla kernel. Linus will (likely) apply that patch into the
next version. Till then I will have to use that incredibly user
unfriendly Logic Audio program (still didn't find out how to export
wave-files).
