How are you going to make the mac plus ethernet capable? They don't have
any nubus slots for an ethernet card. The only option might be to use a
scsi-ethernet adapter, which is generally not a cheap option. It could be
cheaper to pick up an old MacII which gives you 6 nubus slots, and a cheap
ethernet card.
