Apart from standard serial (RS-232) connections, the only option I know of
is Apple's Workstation card for the //e and an Appletalk card for the PC.
This will give you 230kbit networking. I have all this hardware but have
not yet tried connecting it all together (the //e is currently at work while
the Appletalk card is in my PC at home).
