Hi, I am David Shindell.  I am owner of a small scientific company 
named Data Optics, Inc. located in Ypsilanti, Michigan (near Ann Arbor 
and the University of Michigan).   We manufacture precision optical 
research equipment and optical test instruments.  I handle all aspects 
of my business on the Mac.

Right now, I am trying to help out a friendly FedEx driver with a 3400c 
laptop, but there are issues connecting the Ethernet to a router or DSL 
modem.  (It does work when I connect it to my own cable modem, though, 
so I think that the hardware and software are ok in the 3400c.)
  Someone just mentioned that a special pigtail cable is needed to break 
out the Ethernet signals from the Phone on this particular model.  Does 
anyone know anything about this?  (Randy?)
