After the previous suggestion, I went and bought three farallon
phonenet adapters. Thanks! Can't wait to network!

Does anybody have any links to hook the phonenet system up to an
actual ethernet (~) Internet connection? Or, does nobody have a way of
getting either a PowerBook 1400cs or a Mac SE in the internet?

The Mac SE has a SE-PDS slot. (processor direct slot), and an ethernet
card would probably fit there. Only issue is that unlike buses, PDS is
limited to specific processors, so a Mac SE would only be compatible
with SE-specific cards. I'm not even sure that the PB1400cs has
expansion, then again, I could be completely wrong.
Anybody have any suggestions or links?
