Is there any confirmation yet that Apple's Ethernet card will allow
direct TCP/IP access, or are you referring to some other hardware?

I'd really like to plug my GS into an ethernet TCP/IP network, so tell me
exactly what hardware and software I would need (Apart from a GS,
and GNO 1.1 :-).

BTW, RPCs would be really nice, but if you get 3/4 of what your proposing
going I'll be really impressed!
