Call Tri-Data Systems (408) 746-2900, ask for Cheryl Marinaro. They sell the Netway-1000 (~$3,500 16 users) and the Netway-2000 (~$10k - 64 users). The Netway-1000 uses LocalTalk, the 2000 uses LocalTalk and (I think) EtherTalk. Software is available for MS-DOS, but requires the TOPS drivers (supports LocalTalk and some EtherNet boards). WARNING: the MS-DOS software does not appear to be compatible with any known MS-DOS TCP/IP implementations. BTW, the TOPS EtnerNet drivers are available from the TOPS BBS $0!! -- "The universe is not only queerer than we imagine, but it is queerer than we can imagine." J.B.S.
