Man, talk about a flashback! But yeah, unless it has Apple written on it, old electronic junk is just that ...
I still have a GUS MAX with box, floppies, and everything.. it was a 512k card but I ugradeded it to 1mb. The GUS MAX was the card to have for the demoscene back in the day.
I remember looking on the side panel of game boxes at Eggheads Software store to see what sound cards new games supported. I went from an Adlib card to a Soundblaster something or other. I remember having envy for the geeks that were real [H] and had Roland GS 32s (IIRC?). Haha man I'm old!
When I got my new 486 DX-33 in 1992, I was one happy 11 year old, playing Wolfenstein 3D, amongst other games (Wing Commander 1/2 as well). Only had speaker sounds, so Star Control 2 with its MOD music played over speaker was a big deal. I was really jealous of my cousin with his Media Vision Thunder Board that could emulate AdLib and Sound Blaster -- until I got a birthday gift of a MediaVision Pro Audio Spectrum 16, later that year. That really made my day back then.
