Effective Speed of 10BaseT

I wish! Let's see, if I want the Mac to talk to VMS I've got to use AppleTalk, since DAVE (basically Samba for the Mac) and the Samba version of VMS don't mix. If I want to talk to RSX-11M I've got to use DECnet. Samba for Windows, since that's cheaper than getting NFS for Windows (why pay for something I wouldn't really use). Then most systems talk TCP/IP. In an ideal world every system would be running TCP/IP and using NFS to access remote disks, but it's not an ideal world. Good luck finding NFS at any price for the Mac (don't think you can get it for the Amiga anymore either), and I've spent the entire evening trying to get the VMS box in quesiton serving up NFS.
