I really ought to get a 7i84 as well. The current control uses 24 inputs and 10 outputs, although I could make the machine work with the 16 in and 8 out of the 7i97 if I ditched the limit switch inputs and relied on soft limits and the home switches, and didn't use some of the mechanical buttons present.
I'll go ahead and place an order for a 7i84 and you can stick the 7i97 in as well, so I'll pay for your shipping too. Still a fabulous deal!
