Specifically QT 2.0.  I'm getting (should arrive this week) a spigot power AV
board, and it doesn't work with versions of quicktime newer than 2.0 on 
Quadras, and requires even older software on PPC macs.

What am I looking for for termination?  The HD works.  The HD uses the last
connector on the cable (of four connectors), the CD-ROM uses the first 
connector.  I've only tried dealing with termination on external devices,
so am clueless to what to look for here.

I thought I was using MacTCP, but I don't know why.  The control panel is 
labeled TCP/IP.  I set my IP,etc manually.  I set it to advanced 
configuration.  I go to Get Info, and it tells me that I'm using OpenTransport
1.1.1.  So, I'm not using MacTCP apparently.  It also says:
This Macintosh: 192.168.0.103
Hardware address: < not applicable >

Hmm.  Maybe now we are getting somewhere.  I seem to remeber seeing a hardware
address in some dialog on this machine.  More poking is required.
