I was interested in purchasing the NeXTstation (mono) and the Laser printer. However, I need to know if there is any way I can connect the NeXT to LocalTalk besides the Gatorbox. (1500 is a little ridiculous considering I am going to be the only one using it.) I have heard of the Sh(r)iva FastPath but 1)Is there any PD software to support this? 2)Is there any cheaper alternative ($500 and under) to connect the Ethernet to Appletalk? Also, I am really new to the NeXT, and I wanted to know the story behind any terminal programs and modem communication since I have seen some disturbing messages that some people cannot get their terminals up and running..
