Yes, the CD-ROM Extensions is an ordable product.  It works well for
DOS based networking only.  (You must have a DOS based networking
package in order to use it.  Windows based IP packages won't work due
to the product's implementation.)  There was a post a few months back
by HP (I believe Kriss Rant posted it) that a Windows version would be
available this summer (I think).  You get the PC software when you
order the package.
 
If you need any additional information, let me know.
