That's just good old eBay marketing. Put phrases in the title you know a lot of people are looking for and maybe it will draw in more lookers. Kind of like the part of Forrest Gump where he takes money to endorse the ping pong paddles "just a little white lie...don't really hurt nobody."

Would you happen to know what sound chip the S30 has, and/or if the S30 has drivers for DOS sound compatibility?

I don't think so : it's based on Intel 440MX chipset with AC'97 sound, but compatibility list of DOS AC'97 utilities doesn't seem to support this chipset.
