Mac Apps CoExistence w/Windows on Thinkpad 750Cs ???



Sorry, that is a 3Com 3C589 (PCMCIA Etherlink III) network adaptor.  It
comes with ODI & NDIS drivers.  You can get the packet driver from their
online (dialup) bulletin board system and (internet) ftp site.  I bought
my 3C589 used for about helf of 3Com's new price.
