I would like to know if it is possible to add additional sound fonts to
my computer.  My motherboard is a T-Force with on-board AC'97 (ALC655)
sound.  I do not have an audio card.

I would like to add better quality piano sound fonts.  Is this possible
with this on-board sound system?  If so, a URL description would be
appreciated.  Or, am I faced with the need to acquire a PCI soundcard?
If so, recommendations?
