question is why is there no such support for the "Technotrend
TT-budget S1401" card. I have a client with a new project that
requires using one of these cards (or something similar). Is the S1500
a better choice?

I was not complaing that there is no S-1401 support.
I never took it as a complaint. I took it at its face value -- a
question as to why there is no support for the S-1401
I was imply try to find out if anyone had a recommendation if I should
use the S-1500 card than the S-1401
If you already knew that the S1401 is unsupported, then surely you
already knew the answer to that question, else you were seeking a rather
one sided recommendation or otherwise...
Sorry to bother you.
None what so ever. In fact, I've cc'ed the message back into the lists
so you can get those recommendations.
