 	[ Description of using Parnet deleted ]

If I were you, I would be careful when trying to run ParNet on the
A3000, I know of several people who fried their CIAs while trying to
run Parnet.  I dunno what is doing this, but if I wer you I would keep
a few CIAs handy when trying the thing or be 100% sure that yoru cable
is working..
