Again, it's a homemade attempt to put both an internal/external grayscale monitor card AND an ethernet card into the same PDS slot, using a homemade ((?) - What is a "DiMO" board? Am I wrong about the splitter being homemade?) splitter/adapter board. But from what I can tell, the creator stressed that the idea was to make it completely installable/removable without any permanent modification to the original hardware. Since the back of the SE/30 case only has one hole/bracket for an expansion card, the guy took the external portion of the ethernet adapter, put it in a homemade plastic shell, and taped that to the back of the SE/30's case. That large pink vertical stripe is the tape, and you can see the rainbow- colored ribbon cable (a homemade one, the original wasn't long enough) coming out from the space between the upper edge of the hole in the case and the metal bracket inside. -Brad -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
