Just not nearly as well, IMHO. (Depends what your requirements are, tho'
-- how much you might want to listen to music through it, for instance.)
There is an SB driver package -- a .81 Beta, I believe, but with some good
reports on it -- that supports several of the SB cards, including some you
can still pick up cheap at places like the Pomona show. I'd suggest
giving that a try.
