DayStar Digital, Flowery Branch, Georgia, 404-967-2077 makes a LocalTalk
card for Microchannel PS/2's.  (Yes it is the same DayStar Digital that makes
the accelerator cards...)

As far as I know, they ship software with the card for printing and accessing
file servers.

Apple's AppleShare PC 2.0 product ships with a driver for several cards
(localTalk, Ethernet, and TokenRing) including one for either of DayStar's
localtalk cards -- MicroChannel or traditional bus.
