Evolution of PC Audio

Saw this clip on Retrothing.com:

Computer audio has come quite a way since 1981 and here is a short video
comparing everything major from the PC speaker to Adlib on up to cards from
today! At least, from the perspective of the Lucasarts classic, The Secret of
Monkey Island. Get your education on, watch and gain respect for your aural
ancestors.

Monkey Island was chosen due to its having the widest amount of versions of
the same song, as compared to other games which didn't support this many
cards. The final version of the song is from the recent "Secret of Monkey Island
Special Edition" on PC/360/PS3.

Some clips recorded by me, others from Crossfire Designs, all awesome.
