I talked to the Commodore Educational Rep. for my area this morning, and
found that he is sending us (Carroll College) an Amiga 2500, AT Bridgeboard,
and 1084S on a temporary basis.
We asked for an Ethernet card and TCP/IP package, but the rep says they are
not yet available. Is this true?
I was sure someone on the net said he/she had Commodore's Ethernet card.

Secondly, we need some package to let us use an Ethernet card once we get
it. What, if anything, is available???

I would very much like to here from anyone with an Ethernet connection up
and running on any Ether card for the Amiga.
I'm afraid our CS department won't be too impressed with a machine that will
be all alone, not able to connect to our Ethernet.

Please email, I will summarize responses if warranted.

BTW, the machine is being shipped with 1.3 (something I'm not too happy
about,) AmigaVision, WordPerfect, and DPaint III.

Dave
