GENERAL
INFORMATION:  We were just informed of a conflict between Thomas Conrad
              ARCnet (for Micro Channel) and drivers, and the IBM Post
              program in PS/2 Model 80 at 20MHz (as a workstation).
     
              The Thomas Conrad drivers are setting up correctly in the
              C-MOS, then the IBM Post program is not setting the registers
              correctly to what is in the C-MOS.  This only (so far) occurs
              in the PS/2 Model 80 at 20MHz.  This causes the workstation
              to hang about half the time when trying to access a database
              server (in this case anyway).
     
              Thomas Conrad techs say they are waiting for IBM to change
              the Post program for the PS/2 Model 80 running at 20MHz.
