But I wish it was possible to buy decent, modern soundcards/interfaces that still had internal MIDI synths/soundfonts, especially if it were to sound like the SYXG50 (and not those nasty, cheap looking, cheap-sounding piles of crap by Midiplus/Pianobox/V3!). then after that, I converted to SampleTank. then Hyper Canvas (which since made its way into Cakewalk). I also went through a phase of using Edirol Virtual Sound Canvas. Falcosoft MIDI Player ( 2nd in the list) and CoolSoft VirtualMIDISynth. There are modern workarounds for this, thankfully. At the time it did not matter so much as I was still able to use a Yamaha PSR keyboard as both my MIDI keys and sound module in one. I also had that very tasty sounding Yamaha SYXG100 MIDI driver for Windows for general playback of MIDI files, but sadly, that driver/program became unusable with operating system 'upgrades'. I used to have an AWE32 Sound Blaster back in the day, followed by an SB Audigy Platinum, which both had onboard MIDI sounds, making it very quick & easy to set up and use Cubase for MIDI composition.
