I may have replied to this message already, but I am going to reply here just
in case I have not :)
ArcaOS has made quite a few improvements since the OS/2 Warp 4.52 (which is
what ArcaOS is based on). One improvement is better (IMO anyway) USB device
handling as well as the addition of WiFi networking -- albeit it seems that
that is always undergoing improvements, bugfixes, etc).
