Joe,
Not sure how long ago you wrote about the arnet card, but I am looking
for one.
"arnet" or "arcnet"?
Arnet was a company that built multiport serial cards... and was later
acquired by Digiboard and is known today as Digi International.

and Arcnet was a 2.5Mbps token passing networking scheme (coax or twisted
pair) that was popular in the mid to late 80's. There were numerous
vendors of arcnet product and I think SMC was one of the bigger ones.
