    Hey there!! I am really interested in the 6625wd but just wanted a little bit more info.
    It says it has a 7.1 sound card but is the only way to connect my speakers to it via the s/pdif or is it possible to plug in the normal 3 plug audio cable (don't know how to explain it....but its green, black and orange)?

    I'm hoping you can use the normal cable, cos then i can connect it to my creative gigaworks speakers!

    but a optical->audio cabel cant be that expensive, and btw, optical is much better than the copper cables :)

    So its your speakers that are cheap-style :p
