Hi!

Sorry, a bit late, but...

Not exactly true. My LibSS1000 with W95 OSR2 is as stable with FIR networking using HP 
Netbeam (bought for $15 on ebay) as it was with wired LAN connection. Also seems to 
work fine with my Ericsson R320s phone. However, it takes installing QuickBeam Suite 
(ftp://ftp.extendsys.com/qbs/92100650.exe)  to get FIR support. Actually, 4 Mb/s = 200 
KB/s in real transfer speed, but I don't really feel the difference from 10 Mb/s 
Ethernet.

Also, power management is surely worse under W98. Most people get measurable 
difference in battery time in favour of W95 (yes, this might be only due to the fact 
that W98 in "heavier" but when I tried W98 I noticed WinAmp skip for a while every 
time the screen went off after timeout and that was it for me :)). Anybody tried W98 
in APM mode?

Best wishes,
Vitaly
