Sorry Ken, Netherlands - yes,  Philips - (puts on insulted tone) NO!

Tulip is one of many IBM compatible PC clone suppliers.

(retrains self from comparing Philips & Tulip PC's)

BTW any Philips specific PC questions can be directed at me, specifically
software and BIOS related, but hardware questions will be fielded too.

Most Philips IBM compatible PCs are developed and manufactured here in
Montreal.
