Yes, and the D4X program is working my DSL connection as I write this.

For many of you who have had freeze-ups at disk partitioning time or at
initial loading, the timing constraints of the Pentium code which could
not get past the deficiencies in your hardware will be considerably more
relaxed in this version.  I will report very soon whether it works the
nasty Seagate large IDE drives that have so much trouble with pentium
code and 100MHz FSBs.

I think this might actually work off of some of the older CDs that would
fail second stage initialization as well.  Some people with that problem
might want to check it out.  If it does, then there is no doubt at all
that the original problem was hardware related and was simply identified
by the stricter requirements of the Pentium code.

So give it a whirl.  It may be the backwards compatibility a few have
been pining for.

Now, the question I have is are we going to have a fork in the updates
as well?  I am interested to see how they will handle that.
