A special thanks to all who sent in suggestions. I tried them all and
now my Newton is chattering up a storm

I think it was the loose speaker wire connection. I tried the hard
restart and it was still mute, so then I opened up the back, it was
pretty easy, and nudged the connector and wires. Put it all back
together and viola.

So, as with all "scientific" jobs, can't really tell what did the trick.
Next time one at a time.

Thanks again for all the great help and good will.

Herb
