I've got a shot at the new IBM Thinkpad 365 w/CDROM and 8mb of memory. Any recommendations on PCMCIA supported ethernet (thinnet preferred...). At work we're running Token Ring 8-( so I'm going to have to make do with Slip under FreeBSD. (Linux has a Token Ring implementation -- but not for my card... I've got the SMC 8115 Elite Token Ring card -- so I guess slip's the only thing left to run to talk to the AIX stuff.) I'm trying to keep the price down -- so if anyone has some moderate priced stuff... let me know.
