Firstly, I apologize if my comment about the parallel port driver seemed
unfair. I appreciate the info though. I have to admit that I don't
quite understand why on earth the vendors are so reluctant to give out
information. From a business standpoint, if I had product X, and people
wanted information on using product X on more platforms, making my
potential market grow, I would not only provide the information, but
also devote my own development team toward that goal. It just doesn't
make any sense...
