Hi, lanworlders.

I have two 3B2/400's connected with 1MB/sec Starlan, and bunches of terminals.
The latter are going to be replaced by Zenith 286-AT computers very soon.
While our first thought was to run the Zs as dumb terminals direct-connected
to the 3B2s, the idea of networking arose as a possibility, especially
considering that all of the available printers in that lab are connected to
the 3B2s.

So, I have come to learn.  What kinds of networking is feasible for such a
hardware setup?  Any ideas of the costs?

Thanks,
Pete
