Just read this; I'm prepared to save some space for
it. It sounds like a great idea. OS/2 DOES support a
lot of hardware, but there is a lack of documentation
about it. That's why I try to get the OS/2 Hardware
List as complete as possible.
I must say that later this month, I'm planning to
test-drive some thirty PCMCIA IEEE802.11b WiFi cards.
Those will be included in the OS/2 CHL, that is IF
they work porperly ;)
Cyao everyone, and keep up Warp'ing!
