>>One thing I have noticed, though, is that if I disconnect it with the unit off I get a kernel panic in OS 10.3.1. If the unit is on and I disconnect it, though, it seems to be fine. I'm going to email M-Audio about this a little later. <<
m-audio has had kernel panic issues forever. they can't write an os x driver for shit, which is pathetic, since core audio makes it so much easier than before
they had to release updates to the quattro driver to stop kernel panics already...
