I have pc98 support in the works, I could need a couble of testers 
though since I dont have any pc98 HW here.

About the IBM problem, I have no idea why that fails, I need access
to such a box to get further with that, or somebody with access
and the right amount of hacking skills needs to get involved..

However the company I work for just went out of business, so things
are a bit chaotic here while things gets sorted out with that, and
depending on the outcome I'll need time to find a new job ...
I'll try to keep in touch but I might be somewhat absent currently
due to the state of affairs..
