PC Card Compatible Applications

It is impossible to have a full list due the shear number of applications available on the PC. If you have additions / modifications to this list then please email me at web@ultrasnd.demon.co.uk.

This list is accurate as of 26/4/98.

Introduction and Disclaimer

This list is intended to provide a guide to the compatibility of a number of PC applications with the assortment of RPC PC cards available. It must be stressed that this list is somewhat incomplete at the moment and should not be taken as an absolute guarantee of compatiblity, i.e. you buy applications at your own risk. This list will be updated as and when I obtain further details and amendments. In short, if you find a mistake or can fill in a gap then tell me !! It is still at quite an early stage of development.
