I would like to upgrade my Mac at work to 6.0.2.  It is linked by
PhoneNet to a LaserWriter+ along with a half dozen or so other Macs
running system release 5 (sys 4.2 / finder 6.0).  I don't want at this
time to try to get everyone to move to the new system, however.  I
assume that the LW files in the new release would be incompatible and
would cause continual reinitializing of the LW as various members of
our net used the printer.

Question: anyone know of a reason I can't upgrade my Mac+ to 6.0.2 and
then replace the LW files with the release 5.0 versions?

	Thanks / JBL
