/cue music from Hovis advert. When I were a lad I remember the joys of setting jumpers on my Sound Galaxy (cheap Sound Blaster rip off) sound card and playing around endlessly with my config.sys and autoexec.bat settings to squeeze as much conventional memory out of the machine as I could. Ahh those were the days. Kids these days, they don't know they've been born with all this plug and play malarkey.
