I’ve been working with them for a few months now and I’m just amazed at what they are able to accomplish in some very challenging environments.

One note about the Simple Sharing Extensions–you’ve linked to an older version of the spec. The latest version can be found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/xml/rss/sse.

In this case the lesson appears to be: If you haven’t rebooted in a really long time, and have been doing a lot of audio work, it’s probably a good idea to reboot.

This was on XP, for what it’s worth, but I’ve seen audio drivers get weird on Vista and OS X as well so the advice might qualify as a best practice. In general I so rarely have to reboot any of these systems nowadays that I forget that in certain cases it’s probably a good idea.
