Good to know that (Free)DOS has lspci support. Thanks for the info!

And now, for my two cents lol

My ListPCI application (https://mercurycoding.com/downloads.html) does 
essentially the same thing, although it shows only the manufacturer and device 
type, not the specific device name; e.g. "Intel Corporation IDE Mass Storage 
Controller" and not "Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE".

This has proven to be good enough for my purposes (and hopefully other users' 
as well!) and results in a much smaller binary - 52.2 kB versus lspci's 191.5 
kB.
