   I have been looking at maybe writing a serial sever box for
Appletalk.  (i.e. a quick prototype - use a Macwith ATalk in
one port and serial RS-232 out another..)
   The use might be for 4 or 20 Macs on a local twisted pair
AppleTalk net to contend for 1 or maybe 4 outgoing modem or
vaxports or ....
   I've talked to Rich Brown at Dartmouth about using their work
(KSP - Kiewit Stream Protocol) which is okay with Rich but it is
only a start, not merely a weekend hack to get what i want...
(you have to write the accompanying terminal emulator which talks
over AppleTalk instead of the serial port for example...)

My question is:  Is anybody working on an Appletalk serial
server box - either as a commercial product or as an academic
sharable item???

P.S. does anybody know of any IBM PC AppleTalk cards on the market ?
