TOPIC

    This article provides an alternate source for Token Ring products for Mac OS computers.


DISCUSSION

    Apple has exited the market as a vendor for Token Ring products. Apple has no plans for any new Apple-branded Token Ring products for Mac OS. The company also does not plan to offer any additional driver updates or hardware/software fixes for Apple's NuBus or PCI Token Ring cards. We will not be testing or shipping legacy Token Ring software in new releases of the Mac OS.

    Even though no further products, updates, or fixes are planned, Apple continues to recognize that selected Mac OS users have an ongoing requirement for Token Ring products. Towards this end, Apple has been closely working with Madge to ensure the availability of 3rd party Token Ring products that are compatible with the latest Apple hardware and the Mac OS operating system.

    Madge Token Ring products are available through authorized Madge resellers. Visit their web site at http://www.madge.com for more information.
