there's still an alternative out there.

This reminds me - does anyone here have an
ethernet card that would work
in an Amiga 2000? I've got one I'd like to put on the 'net.
The last time I checked, Amiga ethernet cards were quite expensive still,
though things could've changed in a year since I moved off an Amiga 4000 to
my Power Mac clone. If you have a bridgeboard though and a PC ISA ethernet
card, there used to be a couple of programs on Aminet that would allow you
to access the ISA ethernet card from the Amiga side. It was a bit of a
kludge, but was reported to have worked.

Hi Ethan,
That's pretty cool...I don't remember seeing anything on those before.
How much do they generally go for? I was referring to some of the
shareware stuff on Aminet that had a driver actually running on the
Bridgeboard CPU, passing stuff from it to the Amiga side. The extra layer
seemed to slow it down a little but it was a viable alternative for those
that had the Bridgeboards and a cheap ISA NIC card. I've got a 2286
bridgeboard myself but never tried it, as I already had full slots with my
GVP Spectrum, DKB SCSI board and Emplant Deluxe. I always like my various
Amiga's....it's too bad that even the A4000 would no longer meet my needs
for an 'everyday' machine.
Jeff

I still have new, in-the-box GG2 Bus+ bridge cards
w/original warranty. They
come with NE2000 drivers (along with other, non-NIC drivers) but there are
also SMC/WesternDigital drivers on the web page
(http://penguincentral.com/GG2/)

Are you parting with them, then? =)
