	A little tidbit I noticed in at least 2 trade publications recently
(EE Times and maybe ComputerWorld).
	Adaptec - a make of SCSI hard disk controllers has come out with an
Ethernet connector that will run off the SCSI port on a mac. According to the
articles, it can handle both thin and thick ethernet (and maybe a third type
as well) with just a plug in module. The software to run the protocols is
downloadable through the SCSI port. It is a box about the size of a modem
that plugs into the SCSI port on the mac.  The price I saw mentioned was in
the vicinity of $400-$500.
