Amazing, I had one of this computers, it was my first, I remember paying something close to $3000.00 dollars for it at Radio Shack, it was "loaded" (printer and all) lol!

I also bought a bunch of Sierra games, Space Quest, King's Quest, Leisure Suits Larry, MAnhunter and many more... I later bough an add on Sound Blaster sound card for it that would play some actual speech!! I was impressed :)

Txs for sharing this video!

Deskmate should come with a couple songs built-in that can display the three-voice sound. It also should have a sound recorder program. It was one of the first home computers with a DAC advanced enough to record actual sounds.

The music capabilities on this computer are better than demonstrated in this video, a lot of games that run on this machine can produce sounds and music similar to many NES or Sega Master System games, do you have any games on this computer?

@Lachlant1984 Sorry. Nope. I never did get a big cache of DOS programs for this machine. At the time I had this in use, I also had another DOS machine with a 5 1/4 drive and used it with my BIG BLUE IBM disks. Sadly, I only have Deskmate and this music player on it now.
