These boxes work with any mac that has a SCSI port, but the primary use was
with the early powerbooks that lacked both expansion and ethernet. As those
early powerbooks were surplussed, so were the EN SC boxes, which means tons
a few years ago, and now barely a trickle. Selling them has gone a bit
backwards, as most with powerbooks that could use them have them, but
plenty of compact mac users want them so they don't have to open up their
macs to install one of the ethernet cards.
