Pros:	Easy to get lots of I/O to your Mach 3 system
Cons:	Sensitive wich computer to use when upgrading firmware

No charge when upgrading firmware. New versions of plugin to Mach software is coming regulary. This unit has helped me to attach a mpg to my system, and I think there will be more functions used before I´m ready with my machine.
