The part number for the 3400 Ethernet Modem Card is 661-1283, the Ethernet Card is 661-1284. Try a google search on these numbers. I think that is how I found the Ethernet/Modem Card for the G3 PowerBook (same basic machine). The Ethernet/Modem Card listed for the 3400 is different than for the PBG3 but I don't know if they are interchangable. The PBG3 is 33.6 and 10BaseT. > >Also, it's running OS 8; I'd like to upgrade it to OS 9, but haven't been >able to find any info on whether or not the machine can take os9.

Yes, the 3400 can run OS 9 (make it 9.1 though). -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
