Apple makes a product called LaserWriter Bridge. The ed price id $54. I
is a software bridge that runs on an ethernet machine. It allows you to
bridge a LocalTalk network (printers and computers) to an ethernet
network. The only limit to devices is the limit to any LocalTalk
network. As long as the ethernet machine is on, both networks can see
devices in each. It runs well and is very affordable.
