I agree with LASCCreative_SBAudigyOEM, but we should display it in
ahuman readable title in the list displayed at LASoundCards (it's
possible to associate a title like "Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy
OEM" to "LASCCreative_SBAudigyOEM")
I'm also thinking that it must be very simple for a contributor to a
create a new page for his/her sound card, so we should not make it too
complicated and create a sort of a form to help him/her. Abbreviations
must follow some "universal" logic (but yes, I think that LA for
subpages of Linux Audio and SC for subpages of SoundCards is quite logic))

yes, I think that the main page can even be called LinuxAudio
and only call LA* its subpages.

For me, this sounds good.
