Brian "I am about to purchase a new computer and have a question regarding the sound. On the DELL, which I will most likely get, they offer "Integrated Yamaha Wavetable Sound," or a AWE64. The Yamaha is over $100 more expensive." Can you point out a URL for this. AFAIK, an integrated component, sound or graphics, etc... typically is meant to reduce the cost of the product. As I'm aware, Intel motherboards include Yamaha based chips or Crystal Semi chips as integrated options. They shouldn't be more expensive, unless there is a difference in the motherboard you are getting. However, the Yamaha wavetable, probably OPL4 chip is going to be nicer for wavetable (if it's the 2MB version), unless you expand the AWE card. Personally I would just stay away from integrated sound/graphics.
