 mu> I agree. What we need is support for plug and play. You will probably
 mu> say Plug and Play sucks, but it works fine on my win 95 installation.

It is needed, that's where hardware is going.  However, I feel ISA plug
and play sucks big time, but on a PCI bus, it's quite good (probably
because the bus was designed with some PnP functionality in mind).

... I interfaced my cat to my radio but just got hiss.
