I agree it's "pointless" but in retrospection I've done a lot of pointless things with computers. This sounds like fun.

Clever... but were you aware that someone already did it and you might already have the drivers on the machines? Linux's AX.25 drivers include a soundblaster interface. AX.25 uses frequency-shift keying (two different tones for 1 and 0), and transmits around 1200bps.
It is intended to be connected to an amateur radio, but can be hooked up from line-in to line-out if you want."
