Well Joe,

The CFFA card has a CF card socket on-board,
so therefore, an adapter is a mute point.
The CFFA is a great card, and I am fashioning
one for the //c which will plug onto the CPU
socket and the CPU will plug onto my card.
I believe the //c has been neglected and I
hope to remedy this with this device. This
card will be able to use a hard drive ( will
need to remove the floppy and use a special
cable which I am also designing ) inside or
use one of above noted adapters to utilize
a CF card. I am not applying the CF socket
to the card as the adapters are cheaper than
I can provide one for. I have seen these for
as little as $20.

Oops... it seems I missed a rather important word above... How about CF NETWORK adapter cards. Not quite sure why I didn't type that, but that was what I meant. Specifically, I've seen wireless networking cards. Sorry for the confusion!
