>> All,

>> After searching the archives for "USB Sound Cards" and just 
>> "USB", I've failed to find any external USB sound cards that 
>> could be used with my new laptop that has a sound card rating 
>> of 6b. I would like 7f!
>> 
>> The one USB external sound card rated 7f I know about is from 
>> USB Gear manufactured by Cool Gear...I ordered it when it 
>> showed in stock, never heard from them for 2 weeks, queried 
>> them and heard nothing for 3-4 days, e-mailed their tech 
>> support which responded "out of stock" and when asked when it 
>> would be shipping I got another response that said "part 
>> discontinued." Of course, the web site still shows it IN 
>> STOCK, but I'm not going to go that route.
>> 
>> Any help -- including a source for the external sound card --
