Thus spoke Raju Daryanani: : No, my employer at least has almost completely stopped making non-PCI : machines. The entry level system is now a 486DX2/66 with PCI bus and : 4MB RAM. Of course I wouldn't buy a machine like that, but we have : lots of customers who still only want to run DOS and buy it with 4MB. : I doubt the other PC vendors will be far behind. I knew there would be some machines like this, but I guess my suggestion, if it turns out to be workable, would cover enough of the cases to be worth while, and would be easy to implement (in terms of brain power). However, it looks like there may be other solutions to this problem, so I'm not going to push it... Warner
