: Does anyone know if 386BSD will run on a Thinkpad 500?
:
	For 386bsd Release 1.0, there is no information,
	as of yet, as to which machines are directly supported.
	This includes, of course, a list of Laptop, Plamtops
	and PDAs.

: Is there anything I should be aware of?
:
	Yes, 386bsd release 1.0 is available for ordering 
	on CD-ROM from Doctor Dobbs Journal, but *NO* CD
	have shipped as of this date.
	
	If time is of concearn, you might want to see if
	FreeBSD or NetBSD have support for the Thinkpad 500.


: Will it work with the little IBM pointing device thingee?
:
	Sorry again, I will release information as I get it.

	386BSD Release 1.0 is expect out this month.
	My real expectation is that CDs will arrive in
	October or November.
