Hi, 

I use PAO on some of our Office-Laptops an Targa and HP Laptops
without any major problem so far. I had some bad time to get
it installed on my OmniBook 800 because I was lost in the
irq/io war :-)
But know I run a D-Link DE-650 Ethernet Card, a Hotline Modem
and a Nokia GSM Card without any problems. On the Targa
Laptops an Adaptec 1460 works also fine.
All our Laptops run on 2.2-whatever-Snapshots and one is
running 2.2.1

Regards, Stephan
