Happy New Year to All !!

 I took some time to write something about eComStation - OS/2 on the past 2010 listing some of the most important software releases for this platform on this past year.

Your comments and thoughts are welcome on the OS2World.com forum.

Regards.

Martin Iturbide

I have again updated the USB host controller drivers USBUHCD.SYS,USBOHCD.SYS,USBEHCD.SYS.
I have now placed these on hobbes.
They will eventually make it into directory:
/pub/os2/system/drivers/misc

New poll on ecomstation.ru site:

Are you going to install eComStation on a tablet PC?

http://ecomstation.ru/poll.php

You can see more and more tablets on the market (CPU: Intel Atom).

We are interested to ask eComStation / IBM OS/2 Warp users, are you going

install eComStation on a tablet?

* yes, I am going to test eComStation installation

* no reason to install eComStation on such kind of hardware

* My tablet is equipped with other CPU. It’s impossible to install eCS

* I don’t plan to use tablets

You can select only one option, select the general one.
