[comp.protocols.appletalk] EtherTalk Cards for PS/2

geo@surf.sics.bu.oz (George Bray) (05/11/89)

Does anyone know of an Ethernet card for the MCA bus that speaks AppleTalk?

As most of the printers here are LaserWriters and IBM's new ProPrinter
has a LocalTalk port, we need to get PS/2s onto the network at Ethernet speeds
with access to AppleTalk printers.

At present we use the Daystar MCA Localtalk cards but it would be nice to
have it all in one card. Is it possible to have a card speak EtherTalk for AFP
and printing, as well as TCP/IP for PCNFS?
