I have to say that a 100MB zip drive makes a great file transfer system
for the various machines in the office. Plays nicely with the Macs,
NeXT and SGI boxes.

"exercise" - oh god no, I can't see myself doing that. It sounds dangerous. I might hurt myself! ;-)
Chris - definitely set up a localtalk or ethernet LAN for yourself. Great fun networking old Macs. You'll have a blast and actually networking them with todays Macs is just too cool.
How long can a LocalTalk network link be? I currently use 25-foot or shorter phone cords with my PhoneNet connectors, but it might be nice to have some of these computers in different rooms...
I agree - it's totally cool.
Man, I've got to get my house rearranged so I can set up my compacts again!!
