    nothing for linux people there because they are not really in the same market segment here, just a little research.

            I have not run 98 on my home computer since I put NT4 on it back in 1999, then W2K, followed by XP just recently, but since I never bought a parhelia yet, I guess this does not matter

                because it had parhelia drivers from day 1 like the other 2 did.

                    Why does it still say "none planned" for WinME here then? I always worked on the assumption that WinME was just a bastardised & bloated Win98...

                      I was running WindowsNT4.0 Workstation as my main OS (I did dualboot 98) then.

                      The reason for dualbooting 98 was because i haven't amassed enough experience to move to win2k/XP for gaming and work and because it required RAM and HDD upgrade.
