Mackie Onyx Firewire Mixers-Do they perform well as an interface?

Hi all,
Does anyone use a Mackie Onyx firewire mixer as an interface?  If so, how are the specs?  Low latency?  Good drivers? Anything I should be aware of with compatibility with Win7 x64?

  I need to update the analog mixer in my studio and this might fit the bill if it performs well.  I might even be able to get rid of my MOTU Ultralite.  Finally!  Thanks for the help.

Tommy

P.S.  There is nobody at the Producer forum.  Very weird and eerily quiet.  Should I turn the lights out when I leave?

We'll not risk another frontal assault-that rabbit's dynamite!!!

    Ive been using the Mackie Onyx 1400F for a few years with Sonar producer, did have some initial issues when I upgraded to Window 7 Ultimate x64. I had to install the Vista drivers from the Mackie website, and all works well:-)
