Many thanks to all the people who responded to my networking puzzle. (It
looks like all we really need is a smart printer buffer since everybody
here is too paranoid to allow free file transfer.)  Now I have another 
semi-related question. 
   It would be nice to be able to have some kind of file transfer capability 
between the various different types of computers we want.  The simplest way 
to do this is to make the Amigas able to read and write to 1.2Meg 3.5"
AT-style floppies.  So my question is this:
     - is there an AT bridgeboard available for the 2000?
     - who makes it and how much does it cost?
     - does it like 1.2Meg 3.5" floppies?
     - what chip and clock rate does it use?

          Many thanks,
               Kevin
