Not a surprise, but still quite disturbing.

Check out the RME section @ ALSA wiki if you want further details, seems like they are making progress on driver development there.
Thank you for finding that, I have been racking my brain as to why MOTU hates linux, and open source for that matter.

As for Mac and Windows. They are both lacking and falling behind. Neither one of them can come up with a decent 64bit system end to end. However with linux, I can. I plan to have a linux storage server (secure and RELIABLE) and VST server for plugins which will be nice. Windows 7 is promising, but I'm just damn tired of waiting and wasting money!
