Yes. I think it is great! If only I knew how to code it, I would add it to a program as background music. However, a solitaire game is not the best game to add sound to. But I would still do it.

I voted "What's the point?" because I don't think sound really has a place on TI calculators. The limited memory coupled with the large average size of sound files kills the uses for sound for me. Also, I am turned off of experimenting with sound due to the custom hardware required (which I am not willing to purchase or build myself).

Hah! Ditto. I completely agree. Sometimes I think even calculator nerds are stupid, custom building hardware for $20+ at RadioShack (the crappiest place on Earth)just to listen to their calculator beep music with no better quality than the old Nintendo Entertainment System/Famicom. I say take the $20, go to eBay, and use to buy an NES or a video game, put it to some more pleasurable use like a blowjob, or an old Fire Emblem Game.

RadioShack sells overpriced garbage from Indian sweatshops. Try Hosfelt Electronics or national-tech.com or, for that matter, All Electronics Corporation.

I voted "Yes, not worth it" simply because it was self-contradictory. Yay!

Using Calcmod can give you some nice quality music. More games need bg music though.
