    It appears that the RAMFast card generates periodic interrupts using the
RAMFast software driver under GS/OS.  Would this not introduce blank spots and
other nasty glitches into your sound sample?  Otherwise, my hard drive is
definitely fast enough to keep up with even the highest sampling rate. 
Virtual digitizing... could apply equally well to hand scanners as well.
