Identical, "Planned obsolescence" X2.
Yeah, I am not really complaining I guess six yearsin computer years is nearly the equivalent of a century in human years. Besides I went from 250mg HD and 1.5 of ram to 1T and 6 gigs--- frickin' fast. It may be the honeymoon, or some type of placebo effect, but now Foobar sourced music through my external dac seems to sound better and more natural than the old system using the external dac and external soundcard. My old system was Win XP, perhaps the new Win is a win.
