At least, most of the people who have spoken up haven't said so. I sang concert choir for a long time throughout school and was eventually invited to sing a John Rutter piece at Carnegie Hall, a moment I will never forget. Dropped singing altogether once I hit college though. But what I have always loved is coaxing music out of computer that were never meant to do it. Music Construction Set is a high point of my childhood -- 4 seperate voices (using Pulse-Width Modulation, I guess?) out of the 5150 speaker. Using such a pure instrument -- where each voice is exactly the same timbre -- really helped me appreciate classical music, for example. -- Jim Leonard (trixter at oldskool.org) http://www.oldskool.org/ Want to help an ambitious games project? http://www.mobygames.com/ Or check out some trippy MindCandy at http://www.mindcandydvd.com/
