Re: PB 1400c Internal Ethernet?

2002-06-24 Thread Jeff Hubatka

I have a Focus Enhancements internal card (bought new about six months ago
from Datamem), and I also have 64MB of stacked RAM. No size problem, that
was only an issue with the 16-bit video card taking up too much room. The G3
is a tight fit, in fact I had to loosen the ethernet card in order to fit
the Sonnet card in properly.

That's the setup I had in a 1400C a year or two ago.

I keep the PC modem card (which does ethernet) in the lower slot. It uses a
dongle with both the phone and ethernet jacks in it. So, I never forget the
PC card, but I did forget the dongle...once.

I keep a 128mb SanDisk CF card in a card reader in the upper slot, which I
use for VRAM.

My PB 1400c has a video out jack in the back. I have the adapter for it, but
I don't often use it, because the only other monitor I have is a 640x480
Motorola and I don't like it.

Are you saying I can pull that card out and replace it with an ethernet
card?

TIA,
Ken N.

PB 1400c Internal Ethernet?

2002-06-22 Thread Steve Schario

I am considering installing a 10Base-T internal ethernet card in my
PowerBook 1400c, even though I already have a PCMCIA card. My reasons are
based on convenience and that by installing internal ethernet: a) I cannot
possibly forget to bring along the PC card, b) a PC slot remains open for
other possible uses, and c) I don't forsee needing to install an internal
video-out card.

I am interested in your experiences, good or bad, that might help me decide
whether to try to buy an internal card or stick with the PCMCIA? For
instance, will any of the various manufacturers internal cards inhibit using
the full 64mb of RAM as some internal video-out cards seem to do?

I await your pearls of wisdom.

Thanks, Steve



look at the Global Village PCMCIA slot ethernet or combo
