   There's a fair number of NeXT soundfiles available via anonymous FTP
from csus.edu, mostly of HAL saying things ("Everything is going
extremely well...").  I think most ofthem are 8-KHz u-law, 
though there may be a few 20KHz or 44KHz linear files in there. 
From what I hear the Sun and NeXT sound formats are similar enough
aside from the header to be interchangeable.
