If you are referring to networking Model 1/3/4, Corvus systems had a
hard drive system which could be networked.  It is no longer made and can
possibly only be found in museums now.

If you are referring to the Tandy IBM clones, yes, the boards can be changed
for a 286 motherboard.  Make sure the power requirements are adequate.  It
may be better to replace the computer than upgrade it.

Back to the model 1/3/4, I have never seen a card for them to interface to
an IBM network if that is what you meant.  Holmes engineering may be the only
company that might have made an attempt, but I have never seen such a device.

They did make a card-cage for the model 1, so its a long shot of a possibility.
