I think the final solution (unless something suddenly pops up) is to keep the machine with the EMU until both die (or I go first )

This is what I have done with nearly every DAW upgrade. Keeping the older hardware with the older machine and OS, which is likely to be well shaken-down and worthy, while finding the best sound device option for the new machine.

Lots of good reason to do so, for example, no forced downtime because the new thang does not yet cooperate fully, for whatever reason, perhaps drivers need to be rewritten, BIOS, etc. you never know what may crop up and then you always have Old Reliable on the job and can still get that music work done while the iron is hot, so to speak.

And then there is the comfort of working with Old Reliable as well as all those softwares accumulated that may or may not be designed to run on the new system...

Seems that just when all aspects of the older DAW are mature and things are working as planned, it is time to fork out money for the newest-latest-greatest-fastest etc. - and the whole dance starts anew.
