Excellent!!   My better half was wondering what to get me next birthday ....!

Reading the web page, I presume the LANManFS only talks to SMB shares
- will you be able to provide other filing system options, e.g. NFS
(the UNIX/Linux version!)  Or give enough information to allow these
to be written?

I'm assuming this connects in place of an econet module, so they
cannot both be in a machine at the same time - so ... the most obvious
question I think ... can it talk AUN ?  After all .. I've got BeebEm
talking it, so it should be possible... :-) :-)

Great news...
