I don't understand why "Driver CD not needed in Windows XP" is a Con. That seems like a positive to me, I like not having to install drivers before something works.

It is a positive, especially since functionality remains the same either way. Thanks to Newtekie1 for pointing the mistake out.

Hmm no driver means a Microsoft default one... I've always preferred the manufacture provided driver in most cases... interesting point none the less

How does the volume jog dial feel/work? Are there any onscreen guis? Does it work ok in Vista x64? Thanks!

The volume wheel is actually "accurate " if I may use that term. It has a nice range and actually allows for decent fine tuning of the audio. It will work fine with the standard drivers loaded through Windows, as far as drivers for Vista x64 I will have to inquire about that and get back with you as I do not want to make any assumptions.

Thanks! My old Logitech UltraX PS2 is starting to fall apart and I'd love another scissors key style. I'm a big fan of power on by spacebar and that doesn't seem to work on USB devices. Hopefully it'll work w/ USB-->PS2.
