LocalTalk PC Card: Compatibility With MS-DOS Systems


Apple's LocalTalk PC card is compatible with:

- IBM PS/2, models 25 and 30

- PC XT

- PC AT

and most clones, all of which use the PC bus.

Apple's LocalTalk PC card is NOT compatible with:

- IBM 3270 Communication card

- PCs using MicroChannel bus architecture

- PCs using OS/2

TOPS "FlashCard" works with the 3270 Communication card and may be a viable
workaround.

Tangent Technologies has announced a card that works with PCs having the
MicroChannel bus architecture.
