[rescue] FDDI <-> ethernet

[Ken Hansen]

Bill, those were rhetorical questions - the question was an excuse to
document my **shudder** reaction to Win clients.

WRT the U60, I just think there should be better things to do with that
*fine* hardware than serving up filesystems to "pee-cee" clients... You
should not feel bad that that is the only need/use you have for it, but on
some kharmic level, it doesn't sit right.

Finally, Bill, a man like you has fans *outside* your computer room ;^)
