[comp.os.os2.misc] The BIX OS/2 Compatibility List

gerry@dialogic.com (Gerry Lachac) (06/14/91)

The following list was taken from BIX on June 12, 1991.  It is a list
of PC clones that are compatible with IBM's generic OS/2 1.x release.
It is by no means complete.  If anyone has additions to make and does
not have access to BIX, mail it to me.  I will forward responses to
Steve Mastrianni who has taken it upon himself to compile this list.

(BTW Steve has written several articles about OS/2 device drivers for BYTE)
