Hi all,
I just joined IBM's DAP, and have ordered the PDK CD-ROM.  I need to
find a good, inexpensive player.  My machine does not currently have
SCSI, and I think that would be expensive; I've got IDE right now.
(It's an ISA 486/33.)

I've seen a player in the Damark catalog, which comes with several
CD-ROM titles, for about $200.  The name wasn't printed, as far as
I could see; does anyone know if that player will work with OS/2?
(It comes with its own interface card...)

The titles aren't >really< important; if I can find a good player
for, say, $300ish, I can do without the "extras" (I really only
want it so I can write some code for OS/2, not to play around
with).

If you could email your responses (along with posting them if you
feel others would be interested), I'd greatly appreciate it -- I'm
in training all week, and as my .sig shows, any response will be
gone in a day.    Thanks!  :-)
