I Completel~ry agree with Pierce Wetter.  Why not put the boot code on
a floppy.  The boot code hopefully will never need updating, but if
it ever did it is much easier to update a floppy than to update a ROM.
besides, I don't see having a computer as powerful as a Mac I{ runing
as a7wrdiskless workstation, even ethernet is going to be much slower
than using a built in rd disk.  I would not?7use appleshare as a system disk
even if it were on ethernet and would let me because having slow disk access
[~destroyes the advantages of having { fast computer.
