You can get an PCMCIA Ethernet card for the 1400. I have one & use it to hook my 1400 to the ethernet port on an airport base station, and hence to a broadband connection. Result, super fast internet, much better than other Macs in the house which rely on old style Airport cards!

Incidentally this also gives me access to all the hard drives on those other computers, which may be another way of the solving the original questioners problem?

In short it won't work becuase the PCMCIA controller is not compatible with new-age High Speed CardBus cards, which include (to the best of my knowledge) all USB, USB 2.0, FireWire and 100Mbit ethernet adapters, as well as others I have likely missed.
