Yes, I remember that article, it is fun to read about their programming behind the scenes.
Now I wonder.. would their hanging notes have partially been caused by creative's defective MPU? and would they have ever known about it?

Silent Loon: Interesting! But what about soundcards with onboard midi synths?

I think as long as the interface to a synth is compliant to mpu-401 UART, as it should be, there is no technical difference between a daughterboard and an onboard synth. A daughterboard has no full mpu-401 interface, the host soundcard is supposed to take care of that.
