I apologize in case this question has been around recently.

I have a 386 (C&T chipset) and my colleagues have Mac SEs.  I am 
looking for recommendations for an Appletalk card for my PC.  My
planned uses include:
	Printer access (Laserwriter NT)
	Microsoft Mail (hopefully under Windows/386)
	File passing (both ways)
	Appleshare, at some future date

I only know of the TOPS card and the Apple card.  The TOPS worries
me because of their protocols.  The Apple card worries me because
no one in support can answer DOS questions.  Microsoft worries me
because support couldn't tell me which cards their PC mail will 
use.
  

Please reply by email.  I'll summarize if I get interesting material.
Thanks!
