    Wow, that's huge compared to the one provided by the program. It better be good.

    Where did you get SGM-V2.01.sf2 from? http://www.geocities.jp/shansoundfont/ says 209 MB! What the frak? Wait, I thought GeoCities died.

    I noticed a Winamp plugin from the same Web site: http://www.synthfont.com/in_aSyFon_news.html ... I got the SoundFont from SynthFont's directory/folder and used it. This worked even better. :)

    I also read there are tons of SoundFonts. Are there good general ones out there beside SynthFont's?

  4. Re:But they sucked. on The Secret of Monkey Island Shows Evolution of PC Audio · · Score: 1

    Yes, I tested SynthFont in 64-bit Windows HP. It worked well, but needs a frakkin playlist as a player. I wished Winamp could use these software synthesizers.

    Thanks. I also e-mailed SythFont to see if they had a playlist method. I just want a player to listen to MIDI nicely. :D

    Wait a minute, how do I play my MIDI files as a playlist? It seems like I have to play one MIDI at a time. Am I missing something? :(

    Awesome! Now, my MIDI sounds better than crappy FM MIDI on this onboard sound! Thank you!!!!!! :)

    Although GUI and usability is weird for SynthFont! It took me a while to figure out how to use it and just be a player with my MIDI files.

    Thanks, but http://fluidsynth.resonance.org/trac doesn't seem to work. I also don't have a SB card anymore.

    I have done that before, but they sounded bad compared to Yamaha SoftSynthesizer. It was also better than WaveBlaster II daughtercard for my SB16 ISA card back in the old days. :)

    But most of those MIDI sucked unless you had high quality. I remember using Yamaha SoftSynthesizer that made a big difference in MIDI! Do those high quality MIDI softwares exist today? I still have some OLD *.mid files I would like to listen under XP, 64-bit Windows 7, Linux/Debian, and Mac OS X. :(

    Have their Linux drivers improved yet since their announcements from a few years ago? I remember their drivers would be improved/better. From what I read and heard, NVIDIA is still better. Also, what is the status of their opensourced drivers?

  14. External HDDs? on Seagate Confirms 3TB Hard Drive · · Score: 1

    What about external HDDs? I only saw 2 TB and read that they can't go higher. :(

    So, how's that job search coming along? :P

  16. Re:PDF? on Microsoft Accuses Google Docs of Data Infidelity · · Score: 1

    And some people want it purely Word documents like job recruiter, teachers/professors, etc. :(

    Do what I do make PDF, Word doc, printouts, etc. avilable for them and pick the best for them.

  17. Ditto. on Apple Is Nintendo's "Enemy of the Future" · · Score: 1

    I am almost your age and I have no time to play computer games like in the past. 0-2 hours per week for me. I still love gaming, but no time for them! I still have old games (e.g., Crysis, World in Conflict, C&C3:KW) to finish!

    Or use fake datas. I got kicked for that. However, how do we know that they really deleted our datas? They probably still have the accounts, but not to the public and account owner.

    Way back when I had 9x (including Me), installing 2000 borked my machine. Had to do a clean install.
