I apologize for those I may have offended, I will answer >--Chuck McManis Chuck, I don't know who deep phried you, but please continue to keep us informed about Sun stuff that may be relevant to Amiga People. I happen to be interested as I am posting this through a Sun from my Amiga. Yes, my Amiga is attached (through a 9600 baud serial line with DBW's vt100) to a network that has a lot of Suns. The Amiga has some good roots in the Sun environment. I am particularly interested in Sun's doings as far as NFS and NeWs goes. I'd love to be able to talk my employer into getting me an ethernet card. That way I wouldn't need a hard disk on Amy. I'd have lots and lots of GBytes out on our local net to play with!! Well, for as long as I'm here, anyway. Crass commercialism I can do without... but keep that useful (to some of us anyway) info coming!! Disclaimer: I like Sun equipment. I think they're doing a good job. I don't work for Sun or own any of their stock. I just wish I did. -- Kevin McBride |Disclaimer: My | harvard -\ insert name of company | employer don't want | ll-xn ---adelie----> munsell!klm and address here. | no steenkeeng | decvax -v talcott -v | this space for rent. | opinions from me. | allegra ------------encore
