When I came to Australia, Two years ago, I had to deal with a Corvus Omninet
They wouldn't believe me when I told them they needed a new network.

It ran a bunch apple II's.  Yuk, but It could connect up to IBM PC's and
other computers as well.  I understand (now) it was a type of RS422 hdwe
layer.  Anyways.  I wouldn't mind having it at home tho.  :-)
