[net.micro.atari16] Network for ATARI-ST

ZRFA1@DS0RUS51.BITNET (08/19/86)

We are thinking about students education on one or more
groups of Ataris which are connected by a network. To find
out whether this is usefull we need answer for questions
like:

How many machines can be connected? How is the performance
of the network? Does fileserving, printserving, plotserving
exist? Are there gateways to other networks? Where are the
limits of such networks? Who is producing such networks?

Does anybody have any experience with a network for ATARI-STs?
If so, could you please send me mail explaining your experiences
or answering some of the questions.
