I have never attempted to play a wav file on the Plus/4, but I believe small wav files would be possible. The plus/4 only has an amplitude resolution of
3 bits with two channels....hard, but not impossible I suppose. Same with the Commodore 128. I have played small wav files on the 128.

As far as composing music in basic, I can't help you too much there, I haven't done really any coding in the basic 3.5 of the plus/4, but I could look into it..

A few of my friends have tried to push me to prove I could compose html files on the plus/4, but I haven't experimented yet for one reason. The built in word processor only goes up to 99 lines...ugh, why they did that I will never know.

As far as me being a Plus/4 user, I didn't have one in it's heyday, I owned a Commodore 64. Just recently I bought a Plus/4 and started messing around with it. Nice little box, too bad Commodore didn't make it compatible with the C64. For some reason Commodore was always anit-C64 when it came to compatibility.
