Well here goes since no messages made it to me since Monday.
First for such an old laptop if you want Suse be sure to have at least
20 gig free for a min install. If you cant get more than 256 mb on it,

Hi Samuel:
There is a hardware solution the gaming folks use to connect a wired
computer to a wireless network without requiring any wireless drivers.
These aren't cheap, but they work.
As an example, the Netgear ME101:

There _are_ WLAN drivers for DOS! I successfully used a Cisco Aironet
card in my ThinkPad 770 with vanilla MS-DOS.

Thanks for the fast replies all of you, really appreciate it!
However, as Eric said, configuring the laptop with freedos would probably hard

There's also another one called XFS (not to be confused with the

Actually, there is such a thing as a DOS NFS client! It's old but it

But a DOS player would be much nicer... ;-)
btw: Some BIOS version have "Legacy Sound" option, which provides SB16
compatiblity. MPXPLAY also supports some modern cards AND have support of
networks (ask the author!!).

Hi Samuel,

cannot get all your wishes implemented for free :-).
