Lacee, I was not able to reproduce your problem.  I was able to play sound
on all of the machines.  I did note that the volume was kind of low.  Maybe
that was your problem.  A combination of the fact that the volume was low,
combined with quiet speakers.  I used the speakers from Ms. MacDonald's
room.  I was very careful, and tested each machine.  I ran Youtube on each
of your machines.  I was here for about one hour testing them.  You should
be able to just log onto your machines in the KIPPster account, and use
them.

Were you in the student account or the KIPPster account?

Thanks again for your email!  It is a pleasure to help you.  Please don't
hesitate to email me and this list for any reason!
