On the other hand, there seems to be a very reasonable Ethernet interface
available in Germany. Now, how about killing lots of birds with one
piece of software. Write the drivers such that we could run Apple's
EtherTalk (or KIP if you prefer). Or maybe you would rather have one of
the Mac TCP/IP products. Or any of the related products, such as Oracle,
based (currently, I believe) on the Kinetics TCPort drivers?
