68000 and 68020 PDS Interfaces The Macintosh SE was the first Macintosh offering a PDS expansion. The SE uses a 96-pin expansion connector. The 96-pin expansion connector on the Macintosh Portable is physically identical to that of the SE, but the pinouts and signals available are different. The 68020 PDS interface in the LC is also a 96-pin connector that is physically identical to that in the SE and Portable; however, the pinouts and signals are different.
That even confirms it better. lol. So that means with correct adapters, you could put LC ethernet cards in the SE, SE/30, and even the mac portable. lol.

That shows you how to build glue logic for a chip select signal ;-) for making your own card of course. (FPGA based ethernet, etc).
