- I have a few questions about Windows for Workgroups. First, can it
- coexist with another network on the same physical cable (I'm already
- hooked to a local ethernet of Suns, PCs, etc. - if I get W4W, can I
- connect up just the PCs on the net?). Second, what's the story with
- programming under it - specifically, is there a socket-like interface
- for passing messages between machines, and, if so, is there an documented
- API for this available. Third, how stable is it?

- Thanks,
