Welcome back, Kevin!
Having been a former 100 and 130 user (without ethernet), I just wanted
to add how surprised I was by how quick synching and installing (all but
the largest) packages is via an ethernet connection from my iBook to my
u2000. With the ethernet card, you might find that it isn't too bad. All
you need is the card and a crossover cable.

I always wanted to be a procrastinator.
I just never got around to it.
