The guy who sold us our SB-16 freaked out when we told him we already had a LAPC-1 in our computer.

He said you couldn't have 2 soundcards; they would melt.

I did. It came in a big box bundled with a CD-ROM and a CD of shareware games. And some small, unimpressive speakers.

Moved up to the big leagues when the computer options moved from PC speaker to name brand.

Also the SB-16 forced me to find out about IRQ assignments.

"Sound Blaster" is good branding. Name has impact. Not too scary ethnic like ghetto blasters, either.

if u r privileged enuf to have a mac, u get to desolder and resolder components right off the motherboard to upgrade. its like a 90s kid dreamland.

PCs rob u of that joy with their lame-o-zoid lego-esque plug-n-play technology.
