Glad I could help. I considered the internal swappage thing too, but 
didn't bother as the dock itself is pretty compact. The bother wasn't 
worth it for me anyway.

What looked to me to be the easiest (?!!?) builtin enet for Duo is the 
micro-mini-whatever EN/SC adapter, whose PCB fits comfortably into the 
space above a superslim HD. Now add to that a _very_ tiny wireless access 
point . . . Hey, come to think of it, a wireless PCcard would fit nicely 
into the excess HD space, too stinkin' bad there's no way to interface it 
with the Duo logic board.

How come no maker ever made a PCcard minidock? Hmmmmmmmm . . .
