- That's one of the nice things about the stack that comes with the Surfer Pack:
- It's based on AS225, which uses nipc.library so it can coexist with Envoy--and
- indeed share all the bottom layers of the protocol stack with it, ie. from SANA
- up to IP.
-
- Envoy is great BTW. You do sometimes get crashes when manipulating
- multi-megabyte files across its filesystem but the last time that happened to me
- the remote machine simply rebooted and all running transactions resumed where
- they had been interrupted. The remote file I was writing to wasn't damaged by
- so much as a single bit.

- Be careful with jokes like these. MS-Word users might just fall for it.
