Can anyone help me with a very basic question? What is the difference if
any between AppleTalk and LocalTalk? Mac Sale International is selling a
LocalTalk Board for the PC for $25. The rep said it was made by Apple.
Then I saw that Shreve Systems is selling a AppleTalk PC card for $49; the
rep there said it is made by Apple as well. Which should I buy if I want
to connect my Mac to my PC using the AppleTalk port built into my Mac? I
have the MacTOPS software and want to set up a small "network" with my
computers.
		THANKS in advance!
