Is it at all possible for a Mac Plus to change its appletalk node 
number WHILE the machine is turned on? (ie: no reset, no reboot,
no power off?)

Or, what would happen if a Mac was temporarily disconnected from
the LocalTalk and then re-connected? Would it retain it's old node
number? What if someone else claimed a node number when the mac
was disconnected?
 
Any comments would be appreciated. E-mail or otherwise,

tnx in advance!
