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! :-) (Oh, also, use the address below to save headaches -- if you just R)eply, it'll go to "kbeal@amber" which obviously won't work. I'm looking into fixing that.... all in good time :-) ). -- Kenneth L. Beal, Jr. kbeal@amber.ssd.csd.harris.com | Use OS/2 2.0! :-) often. "I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous!" - MST3k | Learn.
