Funny, I have the same computer, only with 70 meg of ram, and it 
worked fine... It worked so damn well that I went out and got two 
more, which also worked fine on my other Linux box, my win95 comp...
My girlfriend got one also and it works fine on her PB cd-60mhz with 
win95... 

Never had to call tech support, which suprised me!
Maybe their support does suck, but I never had experience with it, so 
I can't say... I did call some other number tho, to get some free 
diskettes (suure, I don't have a cd-rom :) ), and the woman I spoke 
with there was damn nice, and my disks arrived in two days..

Sorry ya had such bad luck with it...
