How many different releases of the SB Live! are there? I haven't found a good list, but Google has revealed that there are quite a bunch of variations, including an early 5.1 surround gamer model (before Live! 5.1).
Are they all driver compatible?

Do not refrain from refusing to stop hindering yourself from the opposite of watching nothing other than that which is by no means porn.

Peruse this list.

Wikipedia has a decent article too
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Blaster_Live!

But basically there is the original release that's quadraphonic, the 5.1-channel edition, a few that don't have a DSP (some OEM and 24-bit models).
