Except for the serial cards, they can be quite easily reproduced. Of
course this would be illegal. ;-)
This has actually been a BIG PLUS for me becuase I have been able to
easily repair/upgrade PM 11's. Anyone know where I can get those serial
cards? Or what I could use in place of them? I assume each card uses 1 IRQ
and uses memory mapped io to talk to the serial ports.
And I cant seem to find any CNET cards. I assume that any 8 bit ne1000
card would work. Anyone know?
Getting back to the point of contention. Even if Livingston used all
standard equipment, they have done the R&D to use the RIGHT equipment and
have designed all the software to get the job done. I think their products
work quite well for what they have been designed. And they dont break.
