        By "MIDI Capability", I believe it merely means that both these
machines can *play* MIDI files through the speaker--that's it.  I don't
believe there is any way to physically hook up MIDI cables and control
musical instruments with it (perhaps a PCMCIA card?).  But the drivers to
play MIDI should have come with your machine.

        Oh, and the 750--it doesn't play MIDI files very well.  Sounds
*very* "tinny" (i.e. like the sound is coming out of a tin can).  I was
pleasantly surprised with the MIDI sound the 701 was capable of though.
