I overheard at an Apple show here in Chicago, that Apple has legal problems
with their NFS.  It seems the group that wrote the initial port that they are
extending never bothered to ask Sun about a license. So Apple is trying to talk
to Sun now, so they can ship MacNFS real soon now.  The person who gave out
this info also said that it is all ready to ship, once they solve the license
problem.
