Sun CPU board has two 8530 SCC's on it, but I don't know if they
can be configured for AppleTalk or not.  The real problem is software.
Apple could do worse than license AppleTalk sources to Sun, especially if
they can get an AppleTalk NFS for the Mac in exchange.  Then someone could
port it to the PC and the Apple //x and solve a lot of file exchange problems.

[Imagine using a PC with AppleTalk and Ethernet cards as a file-service
'gateway' which would allow a Mac or Apple ][ to share files with the PC and
Unix Boxes]
