Sound on PI?? Help!!

[Mike Medlin]

I am stumbling around trying to figure out how to listen to sound
samples on my Personal Iris.  I have some samples in IBM format and some in
mac format, as well as some that are called "generic"  Is there anyone out
there who can lend me a hand on how to listen to any/all of these on the IRIS??
Please assume that I have no knowledge of the sound capabilities of the IRIS
or how sound files are set up/read (which is darn close to the truth)  If
someone could tell me step by step how to listen to the files I have, I would
gladly share them with you.  Do I need a conversion program:  mac-->iris or
ibm-->iris?
