We have just acquired a Sun which we hope to use with
our Apple Laserwriter (also newly acquired).  We'd
also like to use a MacIntosh Plus with the Laserwriter.
The Sun will be on an Ethernet, and the Mac will
be on an Appletalk network.

We felt that we could probably use a mechanical switch
to switch the Laserwriter between the serial port
on the Sun and a serial port on the Mac.  However,
we wondered if there were not some more elegant
way of sharing the Laserwriter.
