- Does this card exist?
-
- * Hardware compatable with Sound Blaster for maximum support by game designers
-
- * True SCSI port for use with any standard SCSI CD-ROM drive (8 or 16 bit? I
- don't know which one CD-ROM drives use)
-
- * Hardware compatable with MPU-401 MIDI card for use with any MIDI software
- that supports the MPU-401
-
- * Dual joystick port (this is an easy one!)
-
- Most of the compatablity issues can be handled with drivers in Windows,
- but not for DOS programs - like games. I don't want to load up my
- system with more TSRs and drivers - especially if they don't always
- work! I really want hardware compatability.
