Because "Macs are toys" :-/ It is useful for this sort of stuff.

No, not under OS 9. OS X supports samba directly. Under OS 9 I don't  
believe any smb servers were ever available (DAVE is just a client)

Under OS 9 your options are thoroughly limited. I vaguely recall that  
fetch came with an ftp server, and an NFS server is likely right out.

That said, the Pismo will run OSX just fine, and all of those ARE  
readily available under OS X.
