I do. Lucky you. I want this PC. Hopefully I can get it at some point. Now, for your question. If Dell hasn't changed their ways, it's actually a realteck card that is part of the mother board as you said. The Wave Max Audio thing is just an audio inhansment thing. It's a software thing. As far as how accessible the card is, well if you use the sound thing in the control pannal you're fine. Now, since I don't have a new Dell PC with this stuff, I can tell you only from past experience with my old Enspireon. With that one there was Real Tech stuff a Real Tek control pannal for the card iso to speak. You can do all kinds of funny stuff in there, make it like you were in a public bathroom, make your voice do the chip munk thing, and or slow it down. This pannal wasn't accessible. I had to have dell deal with it. Man, luck you. The XPS-8700! Is it the regular one?

Subject: Does Anyone Know About This Sound Card? Hello List: I'm embarking on buying a new computer (it's a Dell XPS 8700 with what is called a "Wave Max" sound card (it's integrated into the system) so my question is: does anyone know about this "Wave Max" card? Is it accessible? The new computer will have Windows 7; I checked on another list and am told that the card should be fine with several of the chat clients I visit! But I thought I would check here and see if any of you know about this particular sound card! Thanks in advance!
