Thanks to all of you that provided information to me about soundcards.
I am not investigating what kinds of sounds I can generate or playback
with just the internal speaker provided.

* I understand that the speaker can be switched on/off at different
  rates to generate tones of different frequency.  This results in 
  simple tones.  Any pointers or references to how this  is done?

* Is it possible to playback digitized sound through the internal
  speaker?

* What programming interface do I need to generate these sounds
  within an applcation?  Does any interface provide traps or hooks
  to operating system events such as raising a window or scrolling a
  window so that I can make a sound for particular events?

* Are there any other sounds I can generate with just the internal 
  speaker?

Thanks in advance, any information is much appreciated.
