- One advantage for us 2-mac + deskwriter(appletalk) folks:
-
- Instant no-hassle networks at home!
-
- A must for the powerbook+base mac group (just about every PB
- owner has a desktop mac, right?) Great if you are (like me) the 'at home'
- sysadmin for the computer center :)

- Oh yea, and virtual memory works great for us. We just got
- a hand scanner+OCR+digital darkroom, and even with 8mb ram
- we were tight running all that plus framemaker. Upped VMem
- to 12mb, everything is now all roomy and no problems (*slight
- delay moving between apps, but MUCH faster than the quit/restart
- cycle*)
-
- Anyway, it works for me. I'm glad apple is enhancing the MacOS.
