When I last played with an Apollo a few weeks ago, it appeared
to have a hierarchical file structure very similar to UNIX.
The operating system treats local files and files on other
nodes of the ring net identically, e.g. you can copy a file
from one machine to another by typing

  copy //mike/foo/bar //mary/foo/bar

and can do any file operation without respect to which machine
the file lives on.  As I recall, a single slash at the beginning
of a file name indicated a pathname relative to the local node,
while two slashes indicated a pathname rooted in some master node
for the entire network.  Hopefully someone at MIT, Harvard, or
Brown can elaborate (or correct).

Apollo claims that local and network file access are within
a factor of two of each other in speed.  Neither appeared
particularly fast in the preliminary version I saw.
