I have... somewhere... a stainless steel knob, designed to control the volume, that was wonderful to feel and turn. Alas, the driver was incredibly flaky, and just wouldn't work consistently. I ought to dig it up and see if I can reverse engineer it.

Yup! I may give their drivers another try... this is a different computer, with a later OS.

Alas, they no longer support it. Ah well...
