It may be entirely normal that Ben can't get the 28.8, because it apparently has to do with the 
type of Mac and its processor speed also. Apple has some RealAudio at their web site from a 
developer's conference that is available in both 14.4 and 28.8. My Power Mac can take the 28.8 
stream, but my 68K Mac can only handle the 14.4, even though both have 28.8 modems.
