Advice, please: I plan on purchasing notebook PCs for myself and colleagues to that are capable of running much-awaited Phil Zimmermann's voice encryption program. I'll probably get something based on the 486 DX2 chip. What type of sound card must these computers be capable of accepting in order to run the encryptor?
The specs I have say SoundBlaster, which I assume means just standard 8-bit SoundBlaster minimum, with 16-bit ASP or WaveBlaster not necessary or supported (at least at first...). All will become clear when Nautilus 0.2 is released, as VoicePGP will use that as its code base. The Mac version will just use the built-in sound hardware. The 486DX2 will be more than sufficient. Initially, the specs called for a 486 chip at least, but the Nautilus developer (forgot his name... Bill someone) said that a 386/33Mhz would be sufficient. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ Michael Brandt Handler -- Philadelphia, PA -- <grendel@netaxs.com> \bi/ PGP v2.6 public key available -- 1984: We're Behind Schedule \/
