Not to further confuse things but...

The 735/755 use the "Hardball IO subsystem" which is ASP plus
FWD SCSI (NCR53C720), optional FDDI (??), and CD quality audio (CS4215).

I know the 715s had the CD audio, but they don't have FWD SCSI.

Of course, the 715s above should not be confused with the 715/{64,80,100}
which use the "Gecko IO subsystem" aka LASI.  But I'm guessing that I am
not helping much at this point... :-)
