As far as I know not for a while yet.  There is still a lot
of modularization of the speakup code which has to be done.

No.  The bios is a totally different animal than Linux.

Certainly yes!  You would use 'ssh' or 'telnet', preferably 'ssh',
for
security to connect to the remote server and do your work.

No, you must reboot the machine into DOS for this therefore Speakup is
not running.

Only Linux.
