    Hi Louis !

    -a Another forward into the past?

    If you have a sufficient stack of ACPA's: go for it.
    The TMS processor is *theoretically* a pretty advanced piece of kit for
    its time and was far ahead of the simple signal processors used on
    mainstream cards like SoundBlaster back then - but it was never really supported the way it should have been.

    I still have an Ultimedia Bermuda-77 on the bench running W98 and I put
    the ACPA/A in it, because it had a dead original card. And the ACPA was
    the first best I could get.
