Uninformed indeed, considering that NeXT and Commodore are using the exact
same Berkeley networking code! (That's right, much of Commodore's current
Ethernet TCP/IP package is a fairly straight port, complete all the way
down to the "FTP" and "rlogin" programs). In addition, you can get "X" from
Boing! and REALLY "rlogin" to your remote hosts (i.e., via a graphical
windowing interface, instead of glass tty).
