I remember using a Corvus Constellation setup in H.S. too.  I remember
the servers came in 5, 10 and 20 meg versions (correct me if I'm wrong),
and that was pretty impressive when at the time an Apple ][ floppy
only held about 140K.  

Remember how when you booted up the Apple the constellation would appear 
on the screen in ascii "*"s...
