John, while it's clear that MacWeek made another one of their 
write-before-you-think errors, nonetheless *we* have not had
an ethernet board for our Mac II's "... for the past year ...".

In fact after waiting 5 months I finally got it last week.

I'm still not sure why Kinetics/Excelan decided to market such
a product which seems to be a functional equivalent to the
EtherTalk, but at $100 more.  Does the Kinetics board have DMA
and EtherTalk lacking?
