I apologhize if the FAQ implies that NetBSD does not support the
Mitsumi CD-ROM. Since I have one, and I maintain the FAQ, and I use it
nearly every day, you can probably guess that this is not true.
If possible, whenever anyone sees a blatant wrongness like this in the
FAQ, *PLEASE* E-mail me here. I pay for my own access now, so there
are virtually no limitations on what I can receive. (Versus that LAST
address....)
