Before I get too far off topic - let me simply add that I am running eCS 
and OS/2 on this machine which is a SATA / PCI-express system, albeit 
towerPC not a laptop, so at least with the chipset used on this ASUS 
M2V-TVM motherboard, we already appear to have the necessary support. So 
the T60 "may" work, apart from the usual WinModem problems.
