I have been using an ALPS MD-1000 for several years now and love it. (see some results below).
However, I have an old computer set-up just to use the 1000 as I have not found a driver that will work with my Windows XP yet. That in combination with age is making me look at a new ALPS or similar.
My questions:
What do most folks use?
Is the 5000 much better?
Will cartridges be available for a long time for all models of the ALPS?
Has Sony released their version of the ALPS yet? (or will they?)
Thank you!
