I believe that has been the problem with OS/2's PCMCIA support all along. If it's the same problem I think it is, it may be a while yet before we see an elegant solution. In other news, I saw an interesting beast in the Tiger ad today -- an external CD-ROM called the Gator CD. It's supposed to plug into either a parllel port or SCSI port and works with DOS/Win, Macs, and OS/2 (they even said it was the only parallel port CD-ROM that had drivers rearing to go). Additionally, it adds a SCSI board, in essence, to your system. Apparently, it has an Adaptec SCSI board built in which allows you to daisy chain SCSI devices to it, even if you are using the parallel port. Interesting. >Go visit comp.os.os2.setup. There seems to be a consensus building that >the Works portion of the bonus pack is deadly for performance. You may I don't know what portion it was, but something kept killing my OS/2. I finally gave up on it until someone figures out what the heck is killing the system. --- Sean Chou / schou@uiuc.edu / CompuServe 73672,2111
