[G4] Ethernet repair

[Eric Wood]

Hello Howard,

I have two 3Com cards in my G4. I lost the built-in Ethernet to  
lightning, myself. I'm not sure of which NICs work with OS X and  
which don't, but I know that a Davicom NIC will not, and 3Com does,  
at least in the case of the Boomerang and Cyclone cards. I expect  
there may be more information about compatible cards at xlr8yourmac.com
