Excuse me, I hope this is sarcasm :-) My $10 commodore 64 can dialup and do sound effects (yes, including samples, remember Impossible Mission? :) Well, it could if I had a 64 diallup device, and if the computer was sitting under a huge pile of junk. My point is, "just a 75MHz laptop with 20Mb RAM"... JUST!?!??! *sigh* what I would do for a dx33 with just 8Mb RAM... and I certainly wouldnt be using it to make sound effects...
