	We've been using the alisatalk system for about a week now and so
I can give some quick impressions.....

1. The march release version will support remote volumes on the VMS VAX with
	read only volumes, password protected volumes, and seperate desktop
	and temp files coded by user name (set with the chooser).

2. It will also support moving files to/from the regular vms file system
	without going through the mac.

3. It has full support for laserwriter spooling which is very fast and requires
	no modifications to your system to use it.  The spooler system is
	independent of the file server.

4. rumours of things to come:

	a. Full hfs/appleshare compatibility
	b. imagewriter II/appletalk spooler
	c. remote login to the vms host
	d. remote access through the host to decnet protocols...


5. bottom line:  I love it.....it seems to be very reliable (much better than
	the bernoulli box we were using as a file server)
