Listers,
OK, which is which?
AppleTalk - the protocol?
LocalTalk - the hardware (Apple-branded, with 3-pin connectors on the cabling)?
PhoneNet - the hardware (non-Apple, with modular phone lines for cabling)?
I would prefer to use Apple-branded hardware with my Macs. However, I have
a chance to get a Farallon ISA AppleTalk card for my Linux box and, as I
understand it, Farallon uses the modular phone cables. Does anyone make
some sort of modular-phone-jack-to-3-pin-connector adapter or are the two
systems electrically as well as physically incompatible?
