I wanted one of the Chit-Chat Piper (?) MCA sound cards
for the longest time but they were always too prohibitively
expensive for me. Well over $200 IIRC. Have yet to see
one offered on EPay. I thought I had read on the PS/2
newsgroup that they had gone out of production. They are
now offering them for $129 which isn't a bad price but as
the usual frugal collector I find it hard to justify when I can
buy a whole non-MCA machine including sound card and
CDRom for that price. Maybe I could trade one of my
8580s for one. :^) Shipping might be a bit pricey tho.
Likely about 10 times the cost in your local thrift.
