Apple has the 'Apple // Workstation Card' or words to that effect; it's
a Localtalk adapter for the //e.  It DOES exist; my wife's school upgraded
about a dozen //e's so they could be served (along with four //GS's) from 
their one Mac.  Go prod your nearest dealer; cost as I recall her mentioning
was around $150, though that is probably after school discounting.
