Ah the infamous
apple 2 ethernet board.
The thing was designed, ethertalk support was
written into the Apple2GS
kernel, and then the board was dropped before production and all references
to it torn out of GSOS. The apple2GS world *still* whines about this, even
though they have a tcpip stack of dubious quality that can supposedly do PPP
(although I've never seen it actually work). The guy who developed it is a
real jerk too, and has gained a following of other jerks. Between this and
the fact that my father gave up on his GS and bought an iMac, you have the
reasons I gave up on the apple2 community.
Are you referring to the board which was (supposedly) produced just w hile
ago, or is this some age-old project?
