There are *no* Zorro III Ethernet cards. Zorro II is fast enough for a
networking technology with a maximum speed below 1280KB/sec.

Well, I dunno if it still exists, but there WAS a Zorro III Ethernet Card...

None I know of. And until you can name it I still do not believe that.

[The A4066 is a Zorro II board.]

QN3000+ .. believe me now?

OK, Info is from Amiga Magazin (Magna Media), Issue 12/94 (therefore I am not
sure if it still exists), page 148.

QN3000+, 32-Bit-Standard-Ethernet-Adaptor, IEEE802.3-Standard
 Fujitsu-Ethernet Chipset (Zorro III), Twisted Pair (WD), Cheapnet (BNC).
Systems: Amiga 3000/4000

QN=QuickNet btw.

This company also made a product similar to Envoy, also called QuickNet. The
QN hardware is compatible to Envoy and AmiTCP too.

There were also versions for A500, A1200 and A2000 (some of which included
some SIMM slots, so I guess they were internal).

If anyone finds this thing still exists, please tell me, as I will be needing
an ethernet card sometime this summer.

while we are at it. I am looking for a ethernet card for
my A3000, first I thought I would wait for the Cyberstorm
Ethernet+SCSI+RS232 card or a PowerPC card with ethernet,
but that will take to long I guess.
	Which ethernet cards are supported by Linux/m68k ?
Which are cheaper/better than others ? Where can I get them ?
Any info on the Net ?
