You can still play with Dr. Sbaitso onine: https://oneweakness.com/dr-sbaitso-online. Don't say too many insults, otherwise you risk an error of parity.

Oh I have gotten quite a good number of parity errors in my day. I was just firing it up at archive.org as well to hear that winkle tinkle cadence one more time.
I used VEDIT2 to sample and loop music for my (with friends) triumphant high school Talent Show act way back in 1992.
A long time ago I would help babysit my young niece and nephew. One of the things they would enjoy was a Eliza program I typed up from a basic listing. A simple program but they would really get a kick out of it and would ask for it for a long time.
I also won the middle school science fair with a program that came with the SB Pro, called VEDIT2, if I recall. I set up a tape recording of a standard sound and moved a dish-shaped snow sled different distances from the microphone while recording the standard sound. I used VEDIT2 to measure the peak amplitude and then compared with expectations from a parabolic focusing reflector. Any middle schooler using the word 'directrix' was sure to win in my small town.
And yeah my dad helped with the math.
Good old SBPro though.
EDIT: ah this site has a thing for SB Pro too, and it has vedit2: http://www.vgmpf.com/Wiki/index.php/Sound_Blaster_Pro_(DOS)
