I have a mobile phone "Data Card" which is a PCMCIA type of card allowing you to use the mobile phone network to connect your laptop to the Internet at near broadband speeds. It's NOT a mobile phone but just a card. This I imagine does some pretty intensive real hardware requests so i'm not sure how the Host OSD would handle it - but would be nice. I'm running VODAFONE MOBILE CONNECT -- about the only app I only need to boot back into Native Windows. Cheers -K
Echelon pcmcia cards I agree, although i've seen little support from elsewhere in these forums. The company I work for have many legacy applications that use ECHELON pcmcia cards (BMS, Fire detection systems, PAGA systems, turbine control systems etc) that just don't have XP drivers for them . So we're stuck with dedicated laptops running '98. There's a lot of sofware out there like this. I guess it's just not 'glamorous' enough for parallels staff to concider. Other than that Parallels is awesome. Thanks to the team for a great job
