- $10-$20!!!! or maybe even free??!!! This differs drastically from
- what a phone droid told me when I called them (oh about 3 months ago)
- wanting info on the OS/2 drivers. The gist of the whole conversation was:
-
- Availble in 3 weeks!
- $100.00 a pop, but I could get them cheaper from a distributor.
-
- All I could say was $100.00!! I didn't pay that much for the
- operating system. To which she replied "Yah I know."
-
- If the $20.00 price tag and HPFS is true, it will make
- me so very, very happy.
