Exciting NEWS!! I've been in my basement all month working on an idea. Can't give you any details ( for obvious reasons ) but I will tell you I'm calling my new invention a "Lathe". It's going to revolutionize the car industry. More info to come just before the IPO.

Maybe some of should think twice about Win98?

All three notebooks refused to recognize LAN+modem PC Cards from
3Com Corp., Intel Corp. and Global Village Communication Inc.

"I spent all weekend configuring the laptop," said the user, who requested
anonymity. The problems didn't appear to affect users who received
Windows 98 preinstalled or who performed a "clean install" of the
operating system.

A test by PC Week Labs revealed that on a Gateway Inc. Solo 2500
notebook upgraded from Windows 95 to Windows 98, PC Card modems,
including 3Com's Megahertz XJ1336 and 3C562C LAN+modem, did not
recognize the cards automatically. Technicians had to reinstall drivers in
those cards for them to work with Windows 98.
