[comp.protocols.appletalk] AppleShare PC

There was a recent discussion on LocalTalk connections for PCs
and using AppleShare. If you want to use AppleShare you should
buy Apple's card, because AppleShare PC does not support other
cards at the time being.

There are two possible reasons: Either Apple specifically tests
for there card, or Apple checks for availability of the session
protocol, which I assume is not implemented in the FlashCard
driver. Prehaps someone at Tops/Sun or Apple can clarify that.
