I agree, Neil. Frankly, I'm just as happy to see the real code crunching =

done under an embedded OS in the box, instead of on my already-burdened=20
computer.

Toward that end (now that we're talking about compatible hardware), and=20
I haven't checked out the OCHL as yet, are there any USB Wi-Fi adapters=20
with OS/2 drivers? Seems to me, this shouldn;t be a major stumbling=20
block, as the chipset inside the USB adapter should be pretty much the=20
same as that in a PCMCIA card. The nice thing about the USB boxes is=20
that you can locate them where the signal is best (well, the restriction =

is the length of the USB cable). LinkSys even provides a little velcro=20
to attach the unit to a surface.
