Does anyone know whether the Appletalk option for an Imagewriter includes an Appletalk cable? I'm about to send an order to Apple and don't know whether or not I need to order a "LocalTalk" kit as well as the printer and the AppleTalk board. (Anyone want to buy a used ImageWriter I? Make me an offer. When the Mac II comes in (uncontrolled drooling) I want an Imagewriter on AppleTalk so all Macs can share it ...)

The LocalTalk connector/cable must be purchased separately. Misc. Note: I was in one of those bookstore software areas over the weekend and discovered someone was making an LocalTalk connector that looked just like the Apple one and used LocalTalk cable rather than normal telephone cable. The store sold it for $69.00. Apple's sell, retail, for $75.00. Who are we trying to kid? -- "Take a ride in my machine..." Peter Merchant (merchant@eleazar.UUCP)
