We are considering several alternatives for networking 35 Mac IIcx's, 25 of which will be in a teaching lab. We will also have about 75 IBMs running on Novell v2.15 on a PS/Model 80 server. Considering - 1. Putting ethernet cards in the Macs and connecting them to the Novell server. 2. Phonenet or localtalk cabling and a gateway to connect to the Novell server. 3. Phonenet or localtalk cabling and a MacIIcx server . Gateway to Novell. If you have experience with these types of systems, especially in a classroom situation, I would appreciate hearing from you. We are concerned about 25 copies of PageMaker or Word starting at once - hohow long will this take? We are also concerned in general. Please send replies to me directly. If there is enough interest, I will post a summary. Cathy Bacon Canisius College
