Could someone give me their  opinion of the various sound cards for use
in games for DOS machines?  Specifically,

1) Do they provide sound effects or just music?

2) Is the AdLib card good enough?  I.E., is the Sound Blaster worth the
extra 60 bucks?

3) Are those of you with these cards happy with them?

4) Anybody know of a good (read "cheap") source for one?

5) Which of these boards has stereo output a la Amiga sound or something
similar?

6) Anything else of interest, let me know...

Thanks...
