Presumably with the right software you can access remote disks/printers/anything. But a) is there software, and b) does it emulate anything by its lonesome? What I'd really like to do is use it under ProLine to access my Mac's printer and/or disk. I'd also like to use Publish-It and it to access the printer. What is the thing for and how do you use it (other than with System 5 on a GS)? This was all rather moot until recently, when a company called Information Presentation Technologies anounced a "Personal Network Server" which is AppleShare compatible and doesn't require a dedicated Mac.
