Ok, I'm confused.  I print, use network drives, Windows puts the little
'Net' insignia on mounted drives.  Why is this NO NETWORK.  Just because
you choose NO NETWORK in the setup.  Actually, That seems even more
transparent than telling Windows there IS a network and it oughta be
carefull.  If you need to mount drives from Windows, mount a bunch
before running windows.  For those you don't need, get the Win3-nfs program
from cica.  It tells Windows that the left (unmounted) drives aren't
worth lokking at.  Then File Manager doesn't complain.

In addition, I though Sun wrote Tops???  Tops DEFINITELY works on Macs.
