I receintly saw a demo of ProTerm IV: network. (I may have the name wrong.)
It allows you to run a TSR on a PC with a compatable network card, and an
application on a mac, that will run the PC.  The intent is to let a mac    
window PC only applications, or shair sessions on a server etc.  It's sort
of like Timbuktu, but it's Macs and PC, not Macs&Macs. 

Anyone out there using this or a similar product?  We have several PCs with
connections to remote databases, that we've been looking to make accessable
to our larger Mac network.  The developers of the database only use PCs 
for this task.   I've considered SoftPC, or the OrangeMicro PC Boards.  The
problems are the cost of cards, and the number of serial ports available.

Post here, or answer direct to rbrink@hubcap.clemson.edu

Thanks.
