- Nah, just Sony, NEC, Toshiba (=IBM), ... :-)

- The current state is a bit hodge-podge, but apparently the latest
- internal version supports a slew of CD-ROM drives. Maybe a New
- Year's resolution/release?

- How about those presumably proprietary drives offered with the
- SoundBlaster Pro card (Egghead, etc.) - I suppose they are
- probably slow, etc., but (VHS vs. BETA) may become popular
- unless other drives become cheap. Are they supported?
