3Com's implementation of LAN Manager now supports a new transport
stack called Netbios Protocol (NBP).  NBP takes up about 25K, but
you need to add another 43K for the Redirector, plus another 10K
roughly for a couple other items.  NBP is a very efficient performer---
MUCH better than XNS or DLC.  Infoworld will publish a full report
of our performance tests comparing 3+Open with Netware on 7/17/89.
