Lines: 6 Does anyone have any experience running a NeXT network composed of some "servers" (lots of memory/big hard disk) and network stations (less memory, 40 M hard disk for swap space, no OD, boot over Ethernet)? If so, what kind of performance have you had? What ratio of servers to network stations have you used?
