John,
The network is fiber to the desktop ? We recently installed a 100BaseTX network here running a fiber backbone with CAt-5 running to the desktop. The macs here are also i…
You need to find out exactly what "fiber optic" networking topology you are going to be using.
I recently installed a Farallon 1000Base-SX Fiber Optic card in an older beige g3 se…
In addition to Farallon, TeamASA has a Gigabit Ethernet NIC for Macs called "Stallion". They actually released the card and had drivers for the Mac before anyone else, including F…
How old of a Mac? Is it Ethernet capable, or Localtalk only? What volume of traffic? What kind of Printer? There are a lot of variables to consider. Please post more information!
I just bought a new Yosemite G3 and I am looking for anyone who could give me some help/advice on how to transfer files to and from a PowerBook 1400. I guess my two ultimate questi…

The nicest one I've personally seen is the TouchStation by MicroTouch (www.microtouch.com). The touch screen is bonded to the imac screen under a layer of glass. It's impervious …

I just scored an old IIci (for $100; new 'twas $6499 list) so that I wouldn't have to use my 7500 to do IPNR. It sits in the closet humming along (it was a former corporate server …
Using a IIfx with a cable modem as router machine on a 10base-t network, works fine, no lower speeds and very stable. I think it would be a waste to use a great machine like a 8600…
