Hi! A friend's client has a pc-compatible machine from Olivetti (don't know the model, but it seems a normal PC) and would like to build up a "network" using his pc (with the harddisk) as the "mainframe", and buying "cheap" dummy terminals so that other people can work in the same application at the same time (e.g. with dBase III - network version). Do you know weather: 1 - This is possible (I know that with an AT it can be done) 2 - it's expensive? and, which are the machine requirements? Also, could you tell (if you've used something like that) what's the setup and your impressions on it? Other remarks are well accepted, like software and hardware setups (& boards) available. Thanks A LOT! Emanuel Machado
