yeah, which is probably part of the plug 'n' pray business. i get the
general impression that that isn't a question of command and response,
more like the o/s reading the details from an address in the rom on the
card. in other words, it doesn't mean the o/s is capable of talking to the
card at all in any way, it can just see it's there and see what it is.
