MAE ATM

I almost forgot about those netedge boxes, seems the one we had in DC 
was about as reliable as a microwave with tin foil in it.  I cant 
remember how many times it or a card had been replaced.

Is anyone out there still using them?  I do have fond memories of 
fddi, about the only truly stable card on a grf if there was such a 
thing.
