In Defense Of Appletalk
Damien has a new essay:In Defense of AppleTalk? I’m in complete agreement with the majority of the points he makes. Two years ago here at work when we (well my supervisior at the time at least) decided to go with NT systems for our file and print serving needs, it didn’t take me very long to figure out that Macs are far happier printing directly to the printers via Appletalk. Luckily I had a good relationship with him, and convinced him to allow our largely Mac based building computer population to make the switch back to direct printing via AppleTalk. Hopefully the coming move to MacOS X will bring further standardization on TCP/IP along with it.
