Good for XP, NOT useless for Vista
By Lydian
In XP, this thing was great. I upgraded to Vista, and now the outputs have an unacceptable pop and crackle. The Line6 forums are all abuzz about this problem, and there is no solution yet. I heartily apologize. There was no solution at Line6, but I eventually ran across a fix. Unsurprisingly, Vista is to blame, specifically the power profiles on Vista. The fault lay in the processor power-state transitions. This works ok on Vista on a laptop if you select the "Always On" power state. (Actually, there's an occasional pop even then; if you disable power state transitions in your BIOS, I think you can get rid of them.)My apologies, and I revise my rating to four stars.

If you like Line 6...
By Sense Door
If you like Line 6 sounds, this is a great deal with the free gold upgrade. It would have been better if Amazon had mentioned that it was refurbished/repackaged, but there were no problems with the unit. I have simple amp needs, but it is great to have so many effects to choose from, and the amp farm plug in is great for recording.

So far, so good.
By Sabrina
I bought this product for my boyfriend for his birthday. He's not a serious musician, but he plays guitar regularly for leisure and sometimes writes his own songs. He recently taught his son how to play as well, and they both seem to be having a ball with the software and the Toneport. One word of caution is that users with Windows 7 (anything newer than XP, I'd assume) Will need to go to the Line 6 site and download updated drivers before you'll have functionality. It took about 35 minutes to get everything all sorted out and installed, but since then it's been working great.I'm very satisfied with my purchase.
