One of my housmates and I have been playing with NuSound...a sound program
for the internal PC speaker and Replay....nusound plays sounds really
nicely over my internal speaker, but only supports the *.wav format
(yuck...we know where that format came from!).  Replay supports voc files
and we got a few megs of Ren & Stimpy vocs but there is a slight
background hiss during playback and the volume is very low. *sigh* 
Someday I do play on getting an actual sound card, but I would like to see
a sound program for Geos that'll support *everything*...even the internal
speaker....my speaker on my Tandy is 3 voice, so it can do something
besides *beep*  The space flight simulator Echelon had a really decent
sound driver that took me by surprise several years ago when it started
spewing pretty decent sounds and music out of my internal speaker.  I also
wouldn't mind being able to configure GEOS to assign sounds to different
system functions so I can make it do really weird things. :-)  Anyone
figure out a way to rip a window in half yet? :-)  Or could we do that
with a window object?
