- A question regarding this, wasn't (isn't? dunno if it's still
- available) NewTek's "screamer" rendering network based on AS225r2 (or
- maybe it was just aS225?)?

- Great. How easy is it to set up and configure compared, say, to the
- mishmosh that AmiTCP is? How about documentation? Is it aimed at
- humans, or someone with a 10 year background in Unix (assuming that
- the standard user wouldn't have a clue what something like "Grep" is)?
- Does the documentation just cover a basic setup such as connecting to
- an ISP, or are more indepth networking/ethernet aspects covered?
-
- Do you folks plan any tools which would aid connectivity with other
- platforms? There's a HUGE need for this, as many Amiga users by choice
- or necessity also have PC's, and there's really no currently available
- good networking solution short of running Netware (IF the Amiga client
- software is even still available) and with NT & Win95's built in
- networking support, some sort of Amiga-PC peer-peer capability should
- both be fairly easy to incorporate and fairly profitable to whomever
- markets it.
