First of all DIGI 001 ROCKS!!!! I've seen a lot of problems with some Digi002 R's with the firewire not working correctly and even some defectuos units. I'm happy with my 001 and the upgrades don't do nothing new to me I work very well with a hardware that has prouved his stability. Maybe I'll upgrade when we have PT 10!!!, I0ll stay two more years with my loved Digi001. Ed
