Dear Friends!

My work is going on. I will try to place my new version of SysInfo/2
(PM selfmade clone of wellknown NU 3.0 for Win 95/NT SysInfo ) on
HOBBES soon. Version number will be 0.50. Right now you can download
SysInfo v0.038 from:

  http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/system/sysinfo0038.zip 

This is a list of enchancements and differences from 
the current (0.038) version:

    1)First page (Total info) is almost complete (Dos Support -
    corrected, FixPack&Build Level - added, Multimedia&CDROM -
    addded, HDDs info - added)

    2)2nd page (Memory Info) - refresh is added

    3)Problems with opening of read only *.INI files that prevent
    SysInfo/2 to start - corrected

    4)Last page (Device tree) - almost done. Information is shown in
    Win95 style and now you can find all info about any device you
    selected + total resource usage summary (IRQ, DMA, Ports, etc.) -
    also like in Win 95

The SysInfo/2 project roadmap is:

    1) CPU&FPU benchmarks will be added to 1st page (may be, based on
    SysBench source)

    2) Disk&CDROM benchmarks will be added to 3rd page (may be based
    on diskbench source)

    3) "Details" buttons will be added to all page (to display, save
    & print information summary in a text form)

    4) PCI devices will be displayed from PCI helper information, not
    from DevManager, so you will see in Device Tree some PCI devices
    that are not known/not installed in your OS/2 system.

    5) Command line parameters will be added to use SysInfo in *.cmd
    files

    6) MMIO information page will be compleated.

    7) All help will be written.

And also... ;-(( From SysInfo/2 v. 0.50 a time limit will be added.
And from v. 0.90 (I think, after doing step 5) from the roadmap 
shown above) SysInfo/2 will become a shareware program. I think, the 
price will be small and not become a problem. ;-))

Now, I ask you to try my current SysInfo/2 to find any bugs not
listed in the corrected list shown above. I am interested in testing
my SysInfo/2 on new CPUs (Pentium II >400Mh, Athlon, Pentium III) and
on new VideoCards (all that are supported by SDD Beta 9).  Please,
take part in beta testing phase! Taking part in this phase will
guarantee you a free ordering of SysInfo/2 in future.

Also you are welcome to do national translation!
