22 Say Y if you have a Metricom radio and intend to use Starmode Radio
23 IP. STRIP is a radio protocol developed for the MosquitoNet project
24 (on the WWW at <http://mosquitonet.stanford.edu/>) to send Internet
25 traffic using Metricom radios. Metricom radios are small, battery
26 powered, 100kbit/sec packet radio transceivers, about the size and
27 weight of a cellular telephone. (You may also have heard them called
28 "Metricom modems" but we avoid the term "modem" because it misleads
29 many people into thinking that you can plug a Metricom modem into a
30 phone line and use it as a modem.)
31
32 You can use STRIP on any Linux machine with a serial port, although
33 it is obviously most useful for people with laptop computers. If you
34 think you might get a Metricom radio in the future, there is no harm
35 in saying Y to STRIP now, except that it makes the kernel a bit
36 bigger.

350 actually use a card you will also need to enable support for PCMCIA
351 Hermes cards, PLX9052 based PCI adaptors or the Apple Airport below.
