The reasons are, first the board is not a controller + glue chip kind such as a 3C503 or WD8003 etc but rather it has a cpu and memory on it to do much of the low level protocol stack work directly on the board. That means one has to write the protocol stack portion for that board, not likely to occur. Secondly, the board is frequently used with LAN WorkPlace for DOS, a package supplying both TCP/IP and NetWare connectivity. LWP/DOS v4, just out this month, is pretty nifty and is Windows 3.0 compatible. Contact your local Novell dealer about pricing. Joe D. (who has both the board and LWP/DOS)
