As for other sound, I really like the Eletech boards. They take a compact flash card, so programming is done in wave files on your PC and downloaded to the card. Then it is placed in the board. The boards have built-in amplifiers. I ran my opening room using a Gilderfluke MiniBrick-8 and a stereo Eletech board. It puts out 40 watts a side at 4 ohms. I ran the output to two 8 ohm speakers in parallel and got plenty of sound to fill the room. And the quality is 16-bit 44khz, so you’d have a hard time coming up with anything clearer.

Lots of good discussion on the MOM site about servo control software. Robo-Ware Robotics Servo Control Software is recommended, supports downloads to basic stamps. Visual Servo Automation - Overview - The Solution for Mini-SSC Servo Control Software gets a lot of recommendations too but no download to basic stamps, you need to keep the PC in the picture.
