- You could always get Netware NFS. It's fast!!!! So fast, it'll rumble!
- Even a TurboNeXT can't keep up without slowing Netware server down. I've
- got a SPARC 10 which got chewed up by a 386/33 EISA server, before the
- slow-down patch was installed.

- Then you could just mount the Netware server..
