I'm not whining! The GS does have great sound, especially when compared with
other computers (unless you want to bring up unsupported sound cards on the
PC like Turtle Beach's Multisound card).
 
I enjoy the GS. I don't have anything against the AppleIIe. I do feel a bit
put out that a lot of software which was brought out for the GS continues to
be supported only for the IIe computer/card. This is especially true for 
educational software, which is not inexpensive. Quite frankly, I have a hard
time not being sympathetic with many "pirates". There is an issue as to who
the crooks are...
