Those are the guys! I went and checked them out. Holy Old
Crap Computer Batman! $522.00 USD!!! Wow.. some people
really like this chip. I think I'll play with the c64 some and see 
exactly how far I can go with it as it is. Try to add a kbd, see
about noise reduction, maybe a filter and vca. See If I can
find a midi-interface or schemos for one.

Thanks for the tips, links and ideas guys!

$500 bucks for a SID box is not an option for me! I don't think
they even include the chip. You still have to go thrift-shopping
for an old c64. Nooooooo. It does look extremely nice though.

Anybody got one?
