I have the original GUS but I was buying one today, I'd get GUS MAX as it has 16bit record/playback upto 48Khz (+ CD ROM interface, MIDI, wavetable synthesis etc.). There is also GUS ACE, which is a lot cheaper and does not do CDROM & Joystick interfaces and is meant for people with SBs but can also work on its own. I don't know if it can record. If it can, that'd be the card to get. But don't rely on Fry's having any GUS cards! Since you are not local to the Bay area you may want to try mail order places. You should be able to get the GUS MAX for under $139.
