You may very well think it's brainless, but with little network experience 
I've set up a very workable network consisting of a wide variety of micros
and a NeXT (and the Amiga does support Appletalk via 3rd parties). The real
world is not the Internet. It often consists of hospitals, schools, etc...that
can benefit a great deal from the ease of setup of the type of network I am
talking about. Given that all kinds of resources are being shared 
seamlessly, and that TCP/IP based networks are very difficult to maintain
without some very capable administration, I would strongly suggest that you
are the one not in touch with what's out there.
