i searched around some more, and it seems that the W2K pen driver DOES work with XP, you just have to install the driver manually, through the device manager.
regardless of which OS you choose, 98se, W2K, XP, or even a linux distro... i'm sure you'll love the tablet.
It comes with NT, I have 95, 98 and Win 2000, I just upgraded a pc here at work to 2000. The pc is at least 4 years old (it says:x86 Family 6, 8 stepping, AT/AT Compatible. 133,488 KB Ram) whatever all that means. But I guess its about a 4-500 Mhz. After the upgrade it works really fast.
I think I'll upgrade to 2000, and I guess I'll have to find the pen driver.
Can you all tell me (exactly) what hardware I need for remote networking? I figured I might as well find and buy it now. As you know I want the tablet to work with the big pc in the back of the truck, but I want the big pc to communicate with my house pc. (for internet, synch files/mp3's etc.).
Wouldn't it be better to hardwire the big pc to the docking station (mounted on the dash) and then go wifi to the pc in the house with this:

If I hardwire the truck PC's, what do I use for (inter) communication...the Rad software?
