The MicroHam Interface II as first glance looks good until you read the 
computer requirmints.

Requirements:

Minimum - 800 MHz IBM PC compatible computer with Windows 2000, 64 MB RAM, 
Sound card, CD-ROM, USB1.1 port, Transceiver, logger or control software 
(any)

Recommended - 1.6 GHz PC with WinXP or higher, 256MB RAM, Sound Card, 
CD-ROM, USB2.0 port, Transceiver with computer port, CW paddle, PS/2 keypad, 
logger or control software (any)


My laptop is an IBM 600e with a 366 P2 processor. Has anyone used the 
MicroHam Interface II with this slow a computer?
