I have a few question about the Xyplex units... I've seen lots of them for sale at pretty reasonable prices (compared to a 2509/11). But they always seem to be missing the OS. 1) Does the OS reside in the PC flash card (that always seems to be missing too)? 2) Can you still get the OS? 3) What would it cost? 4) What PC flash cards will it work with?
