Maybe, depends on the PCI bus uncertainty I mentioned. Run BeOS. You'll be shocked how much better, faster and stuff your hardware seems. The run MacOS (up to 8.6) under SheepShaver, which runs MacOS as a native app under BeOS and as fast as MacOS would run on your hardware anyway. :-P You can go fullscreen and swich work spaces to go between MacOS and BeOS. > I'll hunt for an NE2000 driver for MacOS. Yes, if one exists, *and* the PCI bus behaves itself. That is probably going to be the issue. Dunno if NE2000 drivers are available for Mac's, but NE2000 compatible it is. If you can get a RT8139 card and driver, you can have 100mbit networking!! RT8139 is a popular chipset, not NE2000 compatible though.
