I'm curious to find out if anyone else is using the Apricot Qi 300 or
600 series with the built-in Ethernet interface.  I'm rather new at
this, but am interested in hooking a couple of them with the PD software
available.  I'm not even sure of the specs of the board it uses, but,
it's on the Apricot MCA machine and one of the drivers has the usage
words of:
Apricot/Intel Ethernet LLC VR 3.1.0 29th Sept 1988 (Qi series)
Ether592: LAN chip diagnostics check - passed
Ether592: LAN chip configuration check - passed
Ether592: Network TDR/continuity check - open circuit ... etc. etc.
etc. etc.
Anyway ... I haven't opened the machine up to look at the chip set, but
the card is shielded quite well with metal casing all around. Anyway else
have info on this machine?  I'd be interested in hearing back.
Dan.
