Support for the audio port for HP-UX makes sense. On the 300 series
machines there is an "audio port" which you can buy a speaker from
HP for (price?, a large number <$200.00). You can also by a speaker from
any electronics store for about $10.00 which does the same thing.

And you though Apollo was bad for this sort of thing.....

Cheers,
Alan
