work, we'll have to solve the problem some other way, when it actually
becomes a problem.


The upside of this solution is that it's relatively portable though - I'd love to have a DECNET stack on my OS X boxes, for example (in fact as mentioned before latd DOES work on OS X as it's kinda implemented in a similar way)..

Hello!
At one point in time, the OS for the Mac did speak natively to the DEC
family of hardware. It would be very interesting to find out how they
did it. This would greatly benefit Sampsa at least.

As for us? Excellent question.
