I believe this is true.

If we're talking about the same web page
(http://www.hp.com/year2000/products/mpeix.html#toppage)
the 949 is *NOT* listed as "non-compliant".  It is, rather, listed
as "will not be tested for compliance" ... which is rather different!


It's not because they no longer support it ... although that's the
official answer.  It's because the HP Way died some years ago.  Otherwise,
they'd test it and put their users minds to rest...that would be
the HP Way.
