the T30 supports warp 4..
ask mike ryan who wanders in here from time to time..
i sold him a T30 several months ago and he is (last time he answered an
email) happily running OS/2..
with this TCPA and palladium thing, i think more and more will want to move
away from the MS monopoly..
in fact, if the democrats run anybody but GORE i might vote democratic and
hope the justice department will go after MS again..
i don't think any repoblican justice department will..
