Dear Mailing List!

There was a question regarding transputer boards for IBM PS/2
(MicroChannel) systems on this list a few weeks ago. I met somebody of
the IBM lab Yorktown heights two weeks ago (I was asked not to give his
name) who said that a US company doing PC boards definitely will have a
PS/2 board *really soon now*.

Unfortunately, he said that he is not yet allowed to tell me the
companie's name. Sigh!
(CSA, Microway, Definicon, ...?)

Hope that helps and causes the corresponding company to speak up on this
list!

What's the most important aspect to me: Will the host interface on that
PS/2 board be faster (DMA!) than the damned software polling solution on
all the PC boards now???
