The answer is yes! High quality computer peripherals is where the money is. The under $1,000 computer explosion doesn't just get the computer in the door, they get the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th computers in the door. When one of these additional computers ends up in the hands of a testosterone juiced teenager with an addiction to adrenaline rushes, reasonable expenses to supply the habit is no problem. Read your December issue of Computer Gaming World; the #2 item listed under hardware buyer's guide is:
Cambridge PC Works, $99.95 Cambridge SoundWorks has made quite a name for itself over the last several years. They, along with a few other speaker makers, have redefined the quality of the audio put out by PCs. But, like most other things, bringing that kind of quality home would set you back more than a few shekels. Well, not anymore. Cambridge SoundWorks recently introduced PC Works, a $99 satelites-woofer combination that delivers solid performance for game audio and music. And while the PC Works won't rattle the rafters, it does put out enough sound to comfortably fill the room; and it still sounds good at lower volume levels as well.
CREAF knows gaming; gamers bought their early Soundblasters and put them on the map in the first place.
Best of luck,
