-
- No, you don't have to have a CD-ROM drive. The announcement only
- states (or actually means) that a CD-ROM is supported, including
- a driver for regular CD audio.
-
- And have no fear, IBM is well aware of the various existing MIDI
- and audio boards and devices. Many of these have driver development
- underway, though just not available at the initial release date
- of MMPM/2.
-
- This version of MMPM/2 is primarily kernal (task mgt, device
- sharing, sync, I/O subsystems, etc) and audio. IBM has announced
- that both digital and analog video will be available shortly.
-
- Please append this response to the newsgroup, since I cannot do
- so from this account.
