thank you aqua i didnt know that now i know what to do with this PDS slot. Well, there are PDS ethernet cards, video input cards, a few video output cards, an even an Apple ][e card, although I'm not sure if that'll work in the 630. Don't see any reason it shouldn't. Another available card is

Here's the quadlist part: I'll be printing from my LC-580, so my limit is Mac OS 8.1. I know the Brother won't be a big deal cause it has LJ4 emulation, but what of the Stylus C84? The problem there is that the C84's drivers only work with 8.6 or above. I guess what I was hoping for was that I can

Volt were a mere 11 Volts, respectively. Would this be enough to explain the hardware failure, and if yes, what am I supposed to do? There does not seem to be a possibility of adjustment on the PS.

Yes, the Asante 10/100 cards are going cheap on eBay. My only gripe is 10/100 cards in any Nubus Mac either 68k or PPC still get jack for network I get about 180% stock throughput on an 8150 with a G3/240/512k with an ATTO SE4D and a single fast/wide differential drive using the Asante 10/100.
