Does anyone out there have experience of the ATW, particulary as regards
networking? We have heard that an Ethernet card is 'coming soon', but
perhaps they already exist...
I feel my previous mail got lost...
In their january newsletter Perihelion writes:
... The TCP/IP server and hardware driver for the TPM-ETN module will be
available in April 1990. The parted Berkeley 4.3 BSD UNIX networking soft-
ware supports the socket interface, suppliying socket related system calls
an any transputer node. (...) TELNET terminal software will be provided
at first...
The TPM-ETN module is an Ethernet controller from Parsytec for Helios.
Atari announced that the hardware of an Ethernet board for the ATW
would already be ready. It might be the Parsytec board, or another one.
Atari announced the above software for spring. Both products might therefore
be identical.
Atari mentions a price of DMark 1600 +Tax for the ATW-board.
