    While I'm sure those other options are superior overall, we used SCSI <->
    ethernet adapters for years on a few Mac Classics without any problems. In
    fact, I was going to use a couple to make some telnet-only terminals until
    the school decided to create an "Internet Cafe" (which has worked out
    surprisingly well). We used Dayna's and Asante's. Actually, as far as I
    know there is still a professor using one with his PowerBook 145B.
