Hello,
    Has anyone tried any 3Com XJack 10 Mb/s cards in their SPARCbooks? I =
have a source for low-cost cards ($20/each), and think that they might =
be a good idea for ethernet access without carrying the cable, and AUI I =
presently need... I'll probably get one for another laptop, but I wanted =
to ask here first...

I'd like to avoid the dongle 3Com cards, though I do know they work...

I'm running Solaris 2.6 on my SPARCbook(s!).

Thanks,

Ken
