Hello from the UK!
I use the 3COM 3C589D PCMCIA network card with my A1200D - It works great! I use AmiTCP and SMBFS for the software, and often pull files down from the XP box in the house to the A1200 in the garage :crazy:
For A500, I think I am going to get the ParNet cable to move files around. I have an external hard drive (GVP) and copy stuff from disks but that's extremely slow. Over time, I want to get away from disks entirely and figure out a way to keep a repository of programs for Amiga on an USB drive which would be connected to a PC, which in turn would be connected to Amiga over ParNet. I suspect that I will need some software for it. I know that Cloanto offers an Amiga Explorer which works with a null-modem cable?
PS. Have you heard about the Subway and Highway hardware addons? They allow you to use USB devices on your Amiga (Though im not sure how you would get one to run on an A500, even with the accelerator...)
