- The network version of OED hasn't yet been issued (if my information is up to
- date - it may be an oversight that OUP hasn't sent us ours yet.) Colgate has
- already paid for the network version, so since they've already taken our money,
- we've networked the single-user version using DEC Pathworks and a Meridian 314
- tower. This seems to work fine for us, although another user who was testing
- the product on diskless workstations says that they had problems when they
- didn't provide a C: disk for the workstations (our diskless workstations all
- have C: network drives). Ruth Glynn, let us know if you think we've violated
- our license by networking before we get the "network version".
