Thanks again for everyone's help with getting the 3c501 (sorry, it IS an
ISA bus, I got confused...) working.

Now, for the tough one:  I'd like to print from a lowly 8088 to the 
NeXT Laser Printer hanging off my NeXT.  It's a PostScript printer.

Can I print transparently from popular software (ie WordPerfect) by 
assigning the net printer to COM2 or something?  

The NeXT lets me make the printer public to the net and assign it a name,
so I'd assume it's compatible.
