We have an Appletalk net with 6 Macintoshs and a laserwriter connected
together.  WE are acquiring 6-8 more Macs in the near future.  The Mac 
users want to be able to get into the local engineering net.  This is an 
ethernet for those outside Tek.  

We are considering a product by 3Comm which is a file server and a one way
bridge from Appletalk to ethenet.  The name of which escapes me at the
moment and my messy desk won't yield it up.

Is this a good way to go?  Does anyone else know of better products, or
methods(of which I am sure there are many)?  We are just beginning to look 
at this, so we are open to any and all suggestions(that is those being relevant
and non profane).

Thanks
