I work in a lab at Northeastern with Zenith 386s connected to a Banyan
server (formerly Novell) via Cabletron Ethernet cards, and for them we've
had no problems. However, DEC PCs (Tandy built) will not recognize
Cabletron's cards, and I assume that other machines may also not recognize
Cabletron cards. We've had much better luck with Western Digital ethernet
cards, in general.
