Lines: 11 1. Yes you can run Novell over other than Ethernet cards (such as the Starlan twisted pair). I have no experience with this so I can't tell you about relative performance. 2 You are being ripped off for Ethernet cable. We buy teflon coated thick ethernet cable (the 1/2" yellow) stuff for much less than $2/foot. PVC jacketed stuff is available for .40/ft. Most PC's are hooked up with the thinwire RG58U which is even cheaper. Stop buying your cable from INMAC. -Ron
