Thanks for the info Laurent,
Am I to understand, therefore, that I won't be able to
connect my 2x00 to my Mac unless I also purchase a
dongle (it was not included in the price).
Also, I have found a site 'Stirtz Bros PC Surplus'
that is offering a 3Com 3C589D-TP ethernet card for
US25.99 which is less than GEM are asking for a
dongle.
Does the 3C589D-TP work with the MP2x00? I saw on an
FAQ the 3C589D listed, but not with the -TP on the
end.
So, would I be better off with an ethernet card, which
would allow connection to my G4 I presume, or with a
dongle?
Thanks again for any info.
