Or better yet, support CommToolBox? And at the same time make the rest
of their N&C products work with CTB (Liaison, for example, could be
quite interesting with CTB support).

Wishful thinking?

Chape

Well, think about what Farralon is doing in the rest of their product
line.  They're moving into the PC AppleTalk (or PhoneNet Talk as they
call it now) business.

Unless they also add a CTB like thingy on DOS I doubt they'd move
into using CTB rather than ADSP for Timbuktu.  

Maybe as part of Timbuktu/Remote though...

As far as TCP/IP goes, they've been advertising like crazy for a Mac
knowlledgable TCP/IP programmer in the Mercury News and the nets.
