Not sure about the ref to a CD light, but on my version (OSR 2.1), the
little pair of computers in the system tray don't actually appear
until the "Logging on to network" window scoots off of the screen. In
W95 retail, the modem object appears immediately. I have been left
several times with a dying connection on negotiation, with no
information about what is going on. FYI, it's a standard IBM OEM fit
AT&T 33k6 modem, with a Rockwell chipset. And that's quite enough TLAs
for now!
