RE: IBM 5250 emulation boards and client acc

[Neil Palmer <npalmer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you're currently using Ethernet &/or Token-Ring, then maybe the best
thing to do with these cards is to cover them up again, or give them
away.  You can't use a Twinax card in the same PC as an Ethernet or
Token-Ring card.  It's not supported by IBM, and will cause hangs/lock
ups on the PC.
