You can install an ethernet card into the CS. But a newer/faster external modem might be a consideration. The ethernet card you have is in a PDS slot, so it's not a Nubus card. My preferences for the 630 have always been: CS-1 ethernet card, PDS video card (with a 17" monitor the 630's onboard video limitations will soon be apparent) and an external modem, if necessary. If you're trying to mount the laptop ata drive as a second drive, then you can't. The 630 does not support a second IDE drive nor Master/Slave configurations. Max RAM AFAIK is 64 MB + the onboard 4 MB. Mike -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
