YES!!! ;-)

I've always wondered about that... especialy since the infos about
the Eagle are so scarce and GE Soft seems gone...

Really?  Has anyone tried them, before saying they cannot work?

On a similar issue, I've started looking into Lance-based VME Ethernet
cards that could substitute for the Riebel card made for Atari Germany.
There are some out there, but without complete Riebel specs, I can only
speculate if they would work...

Does anyone know where I can find those specs, or any detailed info on
the Riebel VME cards for Atari?

Thanks.
