There is a new product from CoOperative Printing Solutions called
COPS Talk. It lets a PC running Windows print to AppleTalk printers
and access data on AppleShare file servers.

Price will probably be between $100 and $120. It was just announced at
MacWorld; all I have is a flyer.

Their number is (404) 840-0810.
