That choice doesn't exist.

Two different cards (and I'm supposed to be getting a third to try) don't work. That 
suggests the main board (or its connector) is bad.

Which is what I'm trying to find out, without paying money. Unfortunately I'm 
unemployed, and I've already bought one ethernet card that didn't fix it.

I'll try the third card the tech is giving me, but it's starting to look like it's a 
stand-alone games computer.

So much for my foray into the world of MacIntosh.
