Given how far behind on order processing I am (again), that's nice to

Well, Sweet16 for one doesn't support serial ports on the Mac version,
and even the BeOS version, which did have serial port support, didn't
let you do AppleTalk over it. Not sure what all would be involved in
making net booting work, other than that I don't think there's much
use for it in emulation...
