    Subject: IBM-PC appletalk card with documented driver ?
    Message-Id: <29283@bbn.COM>

    Does an IBM-PC appletalk card and MSDOS driver exist for which the
    driver interface is documented?  If not, is the hardware interface for
    any of the available appletalk cards documented or has anyone reverse
    engineered one of the boards?

Apple's AppleTalk PC driver is documented, although I don't believe that it is
available yet through APDA (our normal channel for technical documentation).
The document is called "LocalTalk PC Card and Driver Preliminary Note".  Don't
let the "Preliminary" scare you; its technical content is completely accurate.
Apple's Developer Technical Support group should be able to locate a copy for
you.  If they can't, send me mail and I'll fix things.
