Mine has a Starlan 10 adapter in it, which is apparently close enough to
twisted-pair Ethernet that it can be bridged with one of AT&T's Starlan
hubs, which is how I have it wired to my network.  I'll see if I can dump
the ROMs, but they're not socketed so it'll take a bit of surgery.  I also
have the ISDN adapter, which has socketed EPROMs.
