    18 <para>The first question which people tend to ask about <acronym>ALSA</acronym>
    19 is why they should use it over the sound drivers included in the
    20 kernel&mdash;there are several reasons.  First, the <acronym>ALSA</acronym>
    21 drivers support more sound cards than those in the kernel.  Second, the
    22 <acronym>OSS</acronym> emulation is in some cases faster and better than the
    23 original <acronym>OSS</acronym> driver itself.  And finally, there are some
    24 programs which can use <acronym>ALSA</acronym>'s enhanced features to better
    25 drive the sound card.</para>
    26 
    27 <para><acronym>ALSA</acronym> is also the future of Linux Sound (hence the
    28 name <emphasis>Advanced Linux Sound Architecture</emphasis>). The
    29 <acronym>ALSA</acronym> drivers were included into the main Linux kernel
    30 during the 2.5 development series, and they are now the "standard" sound
    31 drivers in the 2.6 stable kernel.</para>
    32 
    33 <para>The following five sections of the book deal with the five separate
    34 components of <acronym>ALSA</acronym>: the libraries, the utilities, the
    35 tools, the firmware  and the <acronym>OSS</acronym> compatibility
    36 libraries.</para>
     18<para>The Linux kernel now provides ALSA support by default.  However,
     19applications need to interface to that capability.  The following five sections
     20of the book deal with the five separate components of <acronym>ALSA</acronym>:
     21the libraries, the utilities, the tools, the firmware and the
     22<acronym>OSS</acronym> compatibility libraries.</para>
