   For some reason, I seem to recall seeing that there was some sort of a 
   ROM disk in the Classic which allows it to be an essentially diskless 
   appleshare client. Have I lost it, or is this indeed true...

   Thanks..

	 Ok to boot your mac classic with the rom disk, take all the disks out
 of the drives, and hold down cmd-option-x-o then wait 3-5 seconds.It is a
 rather empty system (6.0.3) taking up about 350k It does have appleshare. IF
 you want to boot evertime use the control pannel and set the start up to rom
 disk.
