I have 2 PDP-11's that I would like to network into our local ethernet system.
I received a quote from DEC for a DELQA-M Ethernet 802.3 Adapter of $2,412.!
GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!  Can anyone recommend an equivalent 3rd party adapter,
with a presumably more reasonable price?  Please *respond directly* to me as I
no longer lurk on this list.  Many thanks for your help!

(PDP11/73 and PDP11/93, cabinet mount, Q-bus)

DEQNA's are still usable on PDP-11's.  Used ones go for around $400/each.
