[rescue] FDDI <-> ethernet

[Shawn Wallbridge]

I just won the exact same switch ($25 + $25shipping). Now I just need
something with FDDI.

Anyone have any FDDI cards kicking around?

In recent weeks, there have been a whole string of 3com lanplex 2500s
going on ebay for $15 to $25.  These boxes are usually 16port 10baseT
switches with two FDDI uplink ports.  Some of them have had FE cards also.

I'm waiting for the one I ordered to arrive.  Alas, I didn't get one of
the ones with the FE card.
