It was Laurens who asked for a MIC IN cartridge, as it turns out because
his PC soundcard doesn't sample well.

As far as I know, only turbo R has it, under the name PCM.
Music Module has it (undocumented?), without proper timing.

If you think MSX should be able to do everything the bigger computers can,
yes. In a more practical view, I think that playing samples on MSX is enough.

One of the great things of cross-development is that such tools can be
written in Pascal or C++ or Java and still run very fast. And without
having to worry about memory mapper pages of 16K and such.

I'm using PC/Win95 right now (probably the most dull environment), but I'm
experimenting with Linux + KDE.
