Good news of a sort... I may have been wrong about the PC Weasel being out of production. At least their web site is sstill up. http://www.realweasel.com/intro.html IIRC, I paid $350 for my PC Weasel card. I feel I've gotten my money's worth out of it because not only does it allow me to administer a BIOS on some machines (not all) but it is very useful when making bootable CDs. I do a lot of that. I work for the Math Department at the University of Wisconsin and we have an automatic linux installation system. You just boot from a CD and it runs the install. At one time we were doing the same thing with Windows. I would not have wanted to get someone over to look at the screen every time my boot CD failed when i was first setting up these systems. That would be a bother but even worse is that it's hard to find someone who knows what to look for in a screen full of boot messages. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jude DaShiell" <jdashiel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Friday, December 14, 2007 5:11 PM Subject: Re: Speakup Digest, Vol 51, Issue 15 > If the schematic for the pc weasel card ever gets available, I know a few > people who could make those and put them back out on the market.
