They should have released the XX-7 cheap, and raise the price when 
this #"ยค!)%# OS worked.

No really, I don't care if I spent $300 extra money just because I 
bought this thing when it came out. But I'm mad, I expected it to 
work, and I don't dare to bring this thing to live performance since 
it may suddenly crash.

btw, does the rest of you also have this specific problem, that the 
XX-7 crashes, and you have to use the power switch to restart it...? 
Just want to make sure it's the OS and not my XX-7...

Anyway, due to the buggy OS, I will probably never buy E-MU gear 
again. They should not have released the XX-7's at all before they 
worked.
