Greetings, I have located a company that sells an adapter card that plugs into an IBM PS/2 (Models 50,60,70) and allows it to print on an Apple Laser printer using the LocalTalk network. The company is: Daystar 556 Atlanta Highway Flowery Branch, GA 30542 404-967-2077 Please send any comments you have regarding the company or the product or any other companies with similar products to me via e-mail. Thanks. I am not associated with Daystar or any other hardware company.

The stuff looks very good. The manual is easy to understand and well written, better than their competitor's manual. We were very pleased. They are the only company I know of that makes the board for MCA bus machines. This is the Tangent Technologies board (Tangent went out of business.) We are running their printer driver stuff and TOPS file serving on the board as well. We have not tried their AFP sharing software. My only problem now is to get TOPS file serving software working at the same time Microsoft Windows/386 is running. I am having problems with this--rather unstable after fighting to get it working at all. If anyone can help me out with that environment I'd appreciate it!
