Ethernet is ethernet; any way you have of connecting a computer to an
ethernet LAN will work. The GV Platinum Pro does work with OS 9, using the
same driver update that the 56k combo card requires (the ethernet half of
the card is exactly the same). It's a fairly crappy card and driver,
however, and if you want decent performance on large transfers (both for
throughput and responsiveness of the rest of the OS) you might prefer the
Farallon card.
