El Capitan

This was the installer.   On a clean slate, the installer worked fine.  On the upgrade, it choose the wrong driver and refused any means of correcting it.  Every time windows update ran, it would reinstall the wrong driver because, obviously, microsoft knew what I needed better than I do.

      Since I mainly only use cross platform software in
        my studio, and because I'd wanted to for years, I switched to an
        iMac in the studio.  Its been a pleasure so far, but I havent'
        made the mistake of upgrading to El Capitan (mainly because I've
        seen enough people who do that get burned).  My MOTU should work
        fine with EL Capitan, but better safe than sorry at this point.
         Why upgrade if you don't have to?
    
    

    Sounds painful.  The main reason I upgraded to Win 10 was driven by
    my mobile development and the various dev profiles required by the
    tech I use not being supported on Win7.

        You're wrong in exactly the opposite way.  I don't think
          there is enough real competition at the top.  It's become
          perfectly acceptable for all of these companies to put out
          crap after crap and force their users into certain
          technologies (i.e. cloud) because they have simply no
          alternative.
