The Secret of Monkey Island Shows Evolution of PC Audio

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the wow-this-is-a-rough-thursday dept.

Normally I don't have much interest in stuff like this, but this history of PC audio is dripping with nostalgia. From the bleeps and bloops of the PC Jr to the Gravis Ultrasound I lusted after while stuck with an Adlib ... it warms the cockles of my old-man heart. Not sure that Monkey Island was the right demo choice, but hey.
