If this stuff is really working i think we should see more instances of the ndis, true? example a wireless card and a onboard ethernet? Maybe more. How can you work around that problem? It's just a thought, nothing more, i really like this thing because it helps using strange hardware buildin laptops for example. Really cool stuff. Robert -- Microsoft: Where do you want to go today?
