Some friends in an expanding non-profit organisation run an office
with 8 Macs (LCII, LCII, LC475, powerbook). They are currently using
an appletalk network for file-sharing and print services, which has
now begun to grind to a halt from lack of bandwidth. 

An upgrade to Ethernet seems sensible, as does getting a file-server,
which could possibly double as a mail-server and fax-server.

I have in the past provided the necessary assistance myself, but I 
don't have either the time or the knowledge of Mac ethernet to help 
choose between the various options and assist with configuration.

Does anyone know of a supplier or consultant in the London area who
could provide advice and supervise installation at a reasonable cost
(i.e. not 500 pounds a day, as some ppl charge)? The outfit concerned
is a non-profit group, so they do not want to pay fancy high prices.

Any suggestions welcomed -- replies by e-mail if possible.

Philip,
