Hmm, I will probably get both ::) But here is the thing... Right now for file transfer I am able to do 100mbs at a time. Since my macbook is my main computer but is running os10.6 I put the files on to a thumb drive, run downstairs, wake my g4 (running Tiger) that's in the garage from its slumber and transfer whats on the thumb drive to a zip disk. I guess the decider would be if I could not only use the Ethernet card for internet but direct file transfer to my macbook which sits on the same desk. Could I use the Ethernet for file transfer and internet when directly connected to my macbook? My macbook and g4, are set up wirelessly for file share but I imagine it would be different for a 68k? Would it make file transfer easier than the good ol' sneakernet?
