[NTLK] New to Newts. Wifi, Palm syncing, and other question

Steve,
You cannot establish an Ethernet connection between the Newton and Win XP.
Win XP does not have appletalk enabled. Your guy probably did have it all
working to a Macintosh, he can do it with OS9 or classic. You _can_ connect
your newton to your Ethernet network and get to the internet.

For your wired network, don't forget to install all the stuff, including
3comaddon.pkg

The place to start for guidance is Victor's site
http://www.chuma.org/newton/ethernet/index.shtml

and maybe the wiki
