It a process called cost-down. You pull parts out until the device stops working, then add the last few parts back in so that the device still sorta kinda works.

Interfaces from MOTU and Midiman are as or more expensive than Roland. There may be fully functional no-name units or brand name devices on the used market for less.

The funny part is, those missing components fit quite nicely! You're not paying for a MIDI adapter so much as a cable, plastic casing, and PCB. Supply some of the SMD components yourself. That isn't, however, what they advertise.

Apparently, the Windows driver catalog provides the most up to date driver version for legacy hardware. What most people seem to do is install the Catalyst Control Center over top to then control overscan. Man, if you think that's tough, how do you manage printer drivers?

It won't be a PAS of any sort when using the Jazz 16 chipset. Jazz 16 does SB/WSS emulation.

Some interesting data here... http://www.deltathailand.com/imgadmins/financial_file/DELTA_financial_file_en_2012-12-11_15-35-50.pdf Previous to 2001, Delta owned a 58% stake in Newton Power. In 2001 they purchased the remaining shares and Newton became a wholly owned subsidiary. I'm not sure when …

The clock is not likely software configurable, and even if it were, I believe the 2D engine core clock runs synchronous with the VRAM. I'm not sure an OC from 60 to 83 Mhz would be healthy. Last, I doubt you'd see a major improvement in real performance. 2D pixel pushing was much less of a …

Are Newton a Delta subsidiary, or is that scuttlebutt false? If they are part of Delta, it goes a ways to explaining the quality.

Also I still can't understand whether a horizontal desktop will limit my expansion options. It almost certainly will limit your options. Desktop cases usually only have around 3 expansion slots when they use a riser. They usually integrate video which you can use, and they sometimes have sound …
