Quoth rusin@mp.cs.niu.edu (David Rusin) (in <1990Oct15.160516.24618@mp.cs.niu.edu>):
#	Is there a software solution to allow me to run the PC
#program with the CDROM reader attached to the SUN? Or will I have to buy
#a controller card for the PC, and then plug the CD reader into whichever
#machine needs to use it at any given time? (Advice sought there too).

If the software insists on using the CD ROM extensions, the CD player
must be local to the PC. Sorry.
