- IMHO you need at least 8MB to get something done with OS/2 but that's
- debatable. He's right with most ET4000 boards, though. With the OS/2
- package I can buy at any store, I eventually get nice flashy fireworks with
- my ET4000. Poor B.J. user won't be able to get patches and updates easily.
- It took me almost three weeks to get my OS/2 package running just becuase I
- couldn't get a hold of a driver update...
