Subject: OS/2 Wireless Users List: Re: MiniPCI ? was: new ThinkPad 8

hehehe... I sometimes call mine a "SinkPad" too...

Actually, I didn't think that the AcerNotes would support OS/2 at all. 
I'm surprised that as much works on yours as you have found.

Most ThinkPad components are Hitachi, these days. Acer used to 
manufacture TI notebooks. When TI decided to get out of the field, Acer 
bought back the TravelNote name. Solid machines, from what I've seen. In 
the field, we deploy AOpen (division of Acer) whitebox machines all the 
time.
