Stuart) writes: I'm looking for info about Standford Microsystems' ARCnet cards that connect over twisted-pair telephone wire. Supposedly, they sell retail for about $300. Has anyone out there used Standford Microsystems' ARCnet cards before? All pointers and info will be much appreciated. I don't know if they're interoperable with Xinetron's twisted pair ARCNET boards, but Xinetron sells TP ARCNET boards for $89. Xinetron sells cheap Ethernet and Arcnet cards. Their 8 bit Ethernet card is $139 quantity one, and their 16 bit card is $165 quantity one. We have packet drivers for both of them, and for their ARCNET board also Their address is: Xinetron, Inc. 2330 B Walsh Avenue Santa Clara, CA 95051 Tel: 408-727-5509 FAX: 408-727-6499 -- --russ (nelson@clutx [.bitnet | .clarkson.edu]) Russ.Nelson@$315.268.6667 Violence never solves problems, it just changes them into more subtle problems
