I see.

When the article mentioned AppleTalk I envisioned a way to get files off of my old SE using something that hooked into the ADB networking ports.

That too is possible (serial ports though, not ADB). There are existing LocalTalk-to-Ethernet bridge products from long ago that are getting harder and harder to find. I was actually working on a new one for a while but ran out of the time/motivation to finish it up. https://mac68k.info/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=275&start=0&...
Great info, thanks
You wouldn't use an ADB port, LocalTalk used the printer port.

For your SE you could get an ethernet adapter that plugged into the SCSI port or a PDS card to go inside the case.
