I'd expect that you could run some Ethernet stuff if you really want to in the
SideCar.  However, at least one company (can't recall their name) advertised an
Ethernet board for the Amiga in the last AmigaWorld.  Standard 100 pin AMiga
expansion bus thing.  It'd certainly be worth your while to check this out
before commiting to anything PCish, whether on the SideCar or on a real PC.
