I want to prepare for 3.0 and need to know the following:

I want to run ethernet from a NeXTstation mono to two
Macintosh's.  I need two ethernet cards and NeXT software
that will bring up Mac Apps on the 17 inch monochrome monitor
adding to my screen realestate and allowing the NeXT keyboard
and mouse to controll either Mac (SE/30 and next years rumored 
docking station) cpu.  I also want to be able to switch between
sessions without any problems.  What would be a decent memory configuration
(RAM) for the NeXT to be a front panel and file server?
I need to do alot of music/multimedia/video stuff so I wonder
what advantages 3.0 will have other than the most obvious.  
PC Week had an article concerning a new ethernet card at twice 
the speed of the old.  Would this make a difference to my config?
I know the XWindow's solution but wonder if things change with 3.0.
Anybody got any ideas, oppinions, experiences, etc.
