As for the sound card, the SBLive! X-Gamer is the better buy. The X-Gamer, MP3 and Platinum are all the exact same card and software. The Platinum differes only in that it comes with LiveDrive standard. The X-Gamer has a very good game package that is worth more than the $90 you pay for the card :) -Larry Mike West <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:7uaqmo$b88$[email hidden]... > Erm, could be either.

It's a technical term you see. It comes somewhere between "sodall" and "sweetFA,goddamnedpieceofshitcomputer", so I'm told.... Mike Larry <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:5zxO3.1860$[email hidden]...
