Field Note #2 @renodude18 2010-01-27

I do, but i have also yet to find a driver for it, someone once said to try and inject the device ID or something, also there is word around the net that a BSD driver may work with our network card. not really sure havent tried any of them. i decided to buy a cheap USB Ethernet device, that turned out not to work with either windows or MAC, but you could also look around the net to see if you could find a cheap wireless/wired ethernet, but make sure its a name brand like netgear and also that it has a driver for OS X. I ordered one from newegg.com, you can also just buy the one apple makes.
