Yeah, I get it... but besides the fact that Creative Technology has more "options" and looks cooler, is there actually any difference in sound quality, or does it all just come down to the speakers? That's what I'm not seeing...

So I picked up some 5.1 speakers a while back.
I’m looking to grab an external sound card—one that actually supports a 5.1 setup—so I can get some decent Dolby Digital 5.1 audio out of my laptop. Can someone break down the difference between these two cards for me:

Been stuck on this for a bit now, so I'd really appreciate some help...
