You may want to look at Native Instruments FM 8. It has some cool
instruments and has DXI plugin.

It's not available commercially but it is still around. It also works just
fine on both my desktop and laptop with XP.
There was a problem with Direct X installing it, but there is a workaround.

Anyway, you didn't answer the question. I wanted to know what softsynth
available commercially today would most closely resemble the Yammie. It is a
great tool, but the guitars tend to sound a little weak.

Thanks Max, lots to look at. Aren't some of these considered soundfonts
with huge libraries necessary to make them work?

I recently heard about the Garritan GM. That one sounds promising. I
really like the simplicity of the SYG, but it may be time to learn something
new.
