Well, i have an Asus P55TP4XE (P120, 16 MB EDO RAM, and 256 kb of PB
cache) and a Millenium and they seem to be working quite well with OS/2,
thank you. I did have problems at the beginning but now i think they
were related to the other parts i had from my previous computer.

I've contacted Matrox about four times, and they've always answered
promptly, and yes, i can say that courteusly too. When i was having the
problems i thought they were related to the drivers, and so i told them.
They sent me a beta version of their latest drivers by e-mail (V1.03,
build 013) even if i didn't specifically asked for them. However, i
wouldn't recommend this unless you are capable of receiving big files by
e-mail. The uuencoded drivers took about 1 Mb of space.

Regards,
