If you're talking about this page: http://www.floodgap.com/retrotech/mac/enet3c589/ do NOT load the Farallon drivers first. Not only are they not needed, they will conflict (possibly badly) with the hacked ones available above. The hacked driver I have for download are sufficient by themselves. I need some data points for a 3400 so I'd love to see how this would work. > I don't have a 3400 but this 3com card worked great in a 1400 OS 9.1 > and a 5300 OS 8.1 for me.

May I put these up on the page as data points?
