Hi Jamie… All the praise was well-deserved <BG>, but don't let it go to your head, just keep making incredible software and keep talking to users! Seriously now, just wanted to get some more advice from you. We're in the midst of planning/purchasing the P133 now, and one issue that seems to be up in the air is the audio card. What I don't want to do is buy a sound card that conflicts (hardware or software) with either your software, the NT OS, or the PVR hardware. Most normally we'll dub in voice-over to point out certain aspects of our animations, but I'm sure we'll have occassion to add some exciting sound effects if we have the ability to do so. I'm also more interested in the visual end of our work than the audio, so I'm not budgeting a lot of money there, as I'd rather have more memory or something else that would be of immediate use. A couple of the cards we were considering were the SoundBlaster 32 AWE Lite or the Ensoniq Sounscape Elite. Last question. You have any opinion on the new Diamond EDGE video card that's being released right now? I'm leaning towards the Matrox Millenium but I'm open to suggestions. Thanks again for the demo and thanks in advance for any advice you can offer on these questions. \\\. ========================= >-==<MIKE(>=– >-==*- /

>We're in the midst of planning/purchasing the P133 now, and one issue that seems to be up in the air is the audio card.< DPS will have an 8 channel, 16 bit, PCI audio card shipping soon. It will probably list for $1500-2000, though I haven't heard the actual price yet.

Mike, We have a list of compatible sound cards which work under Windows NT on our Web site: http://www.in-sync.com/in-sync I would recommend Turtle Beach over the other cards you mentioned, and drivers are available now for their cards. You can pick up the drivers from our Web site. Jamie Carr in:sync
