   I have a couple of simple questions about the Personal DECstation 5000/25.
First, on the back of the machine, there is a modular port with a picture of a
musical note and a telephone handset above it.  Could someone describe what
this port is for, and give the pinouts for it?

   Second, I recently discovered that the DS5000/25 has 8-bit audio output
capability, a la the Sun systems.  I am looking for some way to get audio into
it, to digitize the audio.  Does the DS5000/25 have built-in audio digitizing,
like the NeXT systems?  If it doesn't, where could I get an audio digitizer
for the DS5000/25, and how much would it cost?

   Answers to any of these questions would be appreciated.
