- ________________________
- I wonder if anyone at apple can explain why the sound chip used in the IIvx
- couldn't be stereo! I don't see why the "new multimedia macintosh" can
- only play sounds in mono whereas the rest of the macintosh family can play
- sounds in stereo--even the discontinued ones (SE/30).

-
- The only mono-Macs in production prior to the introduction of the IIvx were
- the Classics (I & II) and the LC's, but now, according to Apple Product info
- the IIsi and the IIci (which once had stereo output), have mono-output.
-
- This is not idle rumour folks, I got this info out of a booklet on the
- entire Macintosh family distributed to dealers. My question is:
- why do this? Anybody in net-land have a good answer?
