There were also reports of an IBM Firewire card which was PCMCIA, but when I got my hands on it, it was clearly Cardbus and not PCMCIA. The main problem with all the reports of Mac PCMCIA USB and Firewire cards is the "bridge". The early ones all used the TI bridge, which is PCI only. The later ones have the bridge built into the functional chip itself. For there to have been a USB or Firewire PCMCIA card, there must have also been a NuBus-to-PCMCIA bridge chip ... but no one ever made one. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
