Heya,

I write a certain amount of fiction (not much), but I like having some 
realism.  So I have some questions for anyone familiar with the Macintosh 
of the mid-90s.  I last used a Mac a lot earlier than that -- I still have 
one of the original Color Mac IIs (not that it's working).  Anyway...

1) How easy/hard was it to handle basic networking in 1995?

    I'm basically looking at two machines, a Color LaserJet (or another 
brand of color laser printer if one was available for the Mac), and a 
scanner.  Could a network handle all of these things, or would it have been 
better/easier to just hook a scanner to one machine and use an A-B switch 
of some kind on the printer?  In the latter case, file sharing could be 
done with diskettes, of course, but sharing across the network would be 
easier.

2) How sophisticated was scanning in 1995?  What about OCR?
