   As the LAN Co-ordinator in my department, I need to add some Toshiba lap-
tops (a T3100 and several T1100 Plus machines) to our LAN (IBM Token Ring).
I've tried a product called the WonUnder from Connect Computer; however, it
doesn't have an internal power supply.  The laptop will provide up to 600 mA
to an expansion card; IBM's Token Ring adapter apparantly needs 1400 mA or more!
Therefore, I am looking at expansion chassis units with their own power
supplies.

   Does anyone have any experiences with such products?  Please e-mail; I'll
summarize to the net.

Thanx!
