Marc,

As far as I can remember we were on about Firewire PC cards for a 
while, but we only touched the USB stuff somewhat. I may be wrong 
though.

As I said several times, I am lucky enough to have a maxed-out 2400c 
that gets several hours of daily usage, runs like a champion at G3 
speeds and crashes once every couple of months if ever. In my 
experience it doesn't make much difference whether you use the 1.3.5 
or 1.4.1 version of the USB software with the MacAlly card. The trick 
is using the custom MCE modified drivers. I have used a good deal of 
USB scanners and digital cameras and stuff, never a problem.

>Seem to have memory of an Apple PC card extension, which I don't

None of the sort in my extension folder. The closest match is 
"AirPort PC Card", which you only need if you have a Lucent PC card 
to use with an Airport station for wireless internet access. The name 
rings the bell over here too, but we are probably talking about an 
older extension predating system 8.6 that was rolled into it 
eventually like so many others.

HTH,
