[comp.unix.aux] AE Quadralink

Has anyone used the Applied Engineering Quadralink 4 port serial board under 
A/UX 2.0.  I am thinking about purchasing one but dont want to put out the
bucks if it wont work with 2.0.  The ads claim to work with System 7 and I
called and the guy I spoke with wasn't sure if it came with drivers for A/UX.
So I need to know:  Does it come with drivers or is that up to the purchaser
If you have one could you let me know of your experiences.  If there is 
enough interest I will summarize here.  Thanks in advance.

Applied Engineering is a really good company. They were making high-quality
low-cost products for Apple owners before the Mac even existed. However, I
suggest you spend your money on a card with a proven record, especially since
they're not pushing the A/UX angle (I really don't think it will work at all).
The Taniwha card is also inexpensive, and it works. See my followup to the
'peripherals recommendations' posting for more info.
