- We have made it a practice to use external SCSI Ethernet boxes,
- which are available from several vendors at about $275, with
- all Macs without multiple internal slots. Communications are
- said to be a bit slower than with an internal card, but the
- single slot of MacIIsi's is saved for other purposes, and we
- have maximum flexibility to switch and upgrade processors.
