How absolutely true.

But thats creaping into the synths and mixers as well - basically anything with a usb or firewire port - how useful and of what value will they be after driver support has stopped, and you cant even run the old drivers on some future OS meaning youve lost half/all of the functionality...

Theres some gear I have that aint old, but Im having to think in terms of dumping it on ebay before its too late. If it wasnt computer intergrated, I might be intending to keep it for years yet...

At least the TI is still a great hardware synth and will remain very useful long after driver support stops in x years.
