	Ok, I have a friend from work, who would like me to load Linux on his
laptop, so he can get a better feel for UNIX.  Being close enough, it'll
give him something to fool around with.
	Anyway, one thing he doesn't want to loose, is the ability to get on the
Internet with it.
	His laptop is a bit old (Don't know exactly what the processor is, but it
runs Win95 fine).  
	The main question is, will Linux be able to make use of the PCIMCA modem
card?  I know there has been some work done with these (and, to be honest,
I haven't tried to connect with my own laptop yet), but I haven't heard if
it was necessary to have windows to use them.
	Thanks in advance, for any answers.
