- Western Digital sold their ethernet and display lines, I think, but the
- company itself is still around. So it's probably true that they're not

- A few weeks ago, somebody reported that DTC told him they had no
- plans to provide OS/2 drivers for their SCSI controllers, but last
- night I noticed ASPI and OS/2 drivers for the 3280 on-line on their
- BBS. It just goes to show that you can't always believe what you
- hear!
