If so, what exactly does >PH send for $29.95? > When I returned a similar card which came with PC Minix 1.3 along with a check for (I think) $39.95, PH sent me a duplicate copy of the distribution disks. Apparently, in PHese, a Minix Distribution includes both disks and manual and a Minix Update includes the disks but not the manual. I think Andy said some months back that he would try to get PH to correct this.
