I wonder why? I'm sure you've read the articles. They are written for a very,
very,...basic audience. The information content in the networking and 
AFE, et al was so low that I'm surprised it lasted this long. How much
knowledge does it take to get a Phonenet connector, to realize that there
are Appletalk networks, etc...That column was an insult to any systems'
administrator of a school computer system. With some exceptions, the people
writing for inCider seem to be uninformed when it comes to both platforms.
There are enough Mac magazines floating around with intelligent articles
on networking, etc...One doesn't go to inCider to learn about this sort of
thing. I'm not trying to put it down, but it's hard not to admit that the
level of information of inCider was very, very low.
