It seems a reasonable thing to ask, since Sun is shipping software that lets MS-DOS machines act as NFS clients. Software is what makes a computer useful, and there is a lot of good software written for the traditional Mac OS. Companies that already have NFS networks would find the Mac II a more attractive wokstation if networked Mac II's could run this software rather than just A/UX applications. - Dan Kegel ({seismo,rutgers}!rochester!srs!dan)
