Speed?
Yeh speed is the biggest difference. Also the Asante PDS card I have in my (currently in bits) SE/30 is totally compatible with Open Transport and requires no drivers other than the standard Apple ones included with OT 1.x.
I have an Danya SCSI/Port SCSI Ethernet adaptor on my Classic II & it's *dog* slow, at least under MacOS 7.6.1. Not got it working on System 6 yet.
No power brick though - it takes a passthru' from the ADB port.
If you can get an internal card, go for it in preference. Not possible on the Classic II AFAIK - no slot.
As far as I know the Mac, Mac 512, Plus, Classic and Classic II are the only desktop machines you can't buy internal Network Interface Cards for, or don''t have LAN built-in as standard. (Man that was a horrible sentence ;o) ). No other examples come straight to mind at least.
