The early 770-1AU machines (and i think the 770ED machines too) all came with
the EVA.. this was standard..
early on, there were 770-3OU machines that did not have DVD, thus no EVA.. and,
even, some 770's that came without a HDD..

then enter the 770X, which came with DVD and soft DVD player/decoder..
the EVA was an option..
same holds for the 770Z..

Mozart is now playing on my 770Z, flawlessly, with the DMA if possible selected
