Greetings:
Yes! Both the Cornell and White Pine versions DO support audio. The REAL
question is... can your internet connection support it??? Audio is supported
at 28.8 (baud on modems) or better. I've also heard "rumors" of MacIntoshes
with 14.4 modems that could get *some* audio.
Basically, you have nothing to lose by trying out both versions and finding
out for yourself!
Oh, by-the-by, try setting your transmit and receive maximums to 28, and the
minimums to 10. Limit the number of user windows you receive to around 2 or 3.
Then reconnect to a reflector. Let me know what you get.
