- Hi all,
- I just joined IBM's DAP, and have ordered the PDK CD-ROM. I need to
- find a good, inexpensive player. My machine does not currently have
- SCSI, and I think that would be expensive; I've got IDE right now.
- (It's an ISA 486/33.)
-
- I've seen a player in the Damark catalog, which comes with several
- CD-ROM titles, for about $200. The name wasn't printed, as far as
- I could see; does anyone know if that player will work with OS/2?
- (It comes with its own interface card...)
-
- The titles aren't >really< important; if I can find a good player
- for, say, $300ish, I can do without the "extras" (I really only
- want it so I can write some code for OS/2, not to play around
- with).
-
- If you could email your responses (along with posting them if you
- feel others would be interested), I'd greatly appreciate it -- I'm
- in training all week, and as my .sig shows, any response will be
- gone in a day. Thanks! :-)
