o_O what a find! Where did you get it? I'm not at liberty to say at this time, as I'm still in contact with the individual. Maybe a few years down the road I'll be able to tell the tale.

Got this sound card: http://www.ebay.com/itm/222314656642 I didn't really want it or need it, but I was drunk and my max bid was only $1.
