	I'm considering using a Turbo Cube for a network and was
	wondering if someone can give me some insight on its 
	ability to handle a 56Kbps connection with about 30-40
	shell level users.  Ideal configuration would be 64M ram.

	Anyone have experience with UniNet's SLAT-1 device?

I believe the NeXT kernel (under 2.1 at least) is configured for 32
ttys at max.  Anyone know if this is increased under 3.0?  Louie? :-)

NeXTSTEP only ships with 32 pseudo-terminals.  I think this is
hard-wired too.
