Bloodline : in other words, decrunch the mp3 into your Ram which is minimum 96 Mb, and then play the 8svx file from there without the need of your harddrive ... sounds easy :-) That way you really don“t need a fast processor. I remember having tried that years ago with my A1230 with 96 Mb Ram. But it took a while before the mp3 was decrunched .. :-o
