One would think there would be. After all, the IIGS' sound
chip is light years ahead of the original 4-voice FM synthesis
SoundBlaster for the PC. Sadly, I have come to realize that
the PCT is not a IIGS card but an Apple II card that happens
to work in a IIGS. AE never developed a native IIGS PCT
operating system so the IIGS side is not powered up. The
PCT operating system instead runs under the 8-bit IIe
emulation mode.
Gameport driver sounds possible since the IIe uses the
same port. Didn't AE provide a joystick driver?
