  I wish you much luck.  I just went through the rather harrowing experience
of trying to interface one PSG to a 5.3MHz 8086.  Those chips are so SLOW!
Experimentation with the number of wait states and data setup time showed
that their specs are fairly accurate (they know that they're slow).  So be
careful and watch out for transient errors, because PSG's are really unreliable
on the fringe.
