Now, however, a situation has arisen which prevents me from using a
serial port for the LAN. The $25 Network can't work over parallel

I'm looking for a replacement which can.
Buy a few ARCNET boards -- they're only $65 quantity one, and they're supported
by Little Big Lan -- the successor to the $25 Network ("the $75 Network").

Thanks for the suggestion, but one of the machines to be networked is a laptop with no slots. Thus the requirement that this thing work over parallel ports. --richard
