Also, there will be a new sound board called the Audioware Board coming SOON that is SB compatible and cost $199 (retail) only. Does anyone know WHEN will they be on the market? I am asking this is because I am planning to buy the SB next week. Should I wait for the new boards or it really doesn't matter? I want to buy the SB mostly is becasue I want better sound for my games. How important the MIDI interface to me as a game player? Could anybody give me some idea? PLEASE?
