Fastpath 5 and GS/TCP

[mportune@telerama.lm.com (Matt Portune)]

I just got my Shiva Fastpath 5 today, and was making a list of everything else 
I need to buy to get this little setup going with win95.  Then, suddenly, it 
hit me.  Win95 has built in TCP/IP support.  So, when GS/TCP comes out, won't 
the 2 machines be quite happy talking to each other?  Will I actually be able 
to get into the GS from another machine on the network, and vice versa?  

I also found a nice 100 foot phone cord that stretches to my living room 
nicely, so I figure, "hmmmm. why not get another machine on the network?"  So 
where can I find a nice chintzy old mac that has the same serial ports as the 
GS, and is capable of running MacTCP via Localtalk?  (I'd like one of the 
"all-in-one" macs, with the tiny little classic built in monitor)

I'm thinking, the GS and the Mac will have phone-net adapters, and connect to 
the Fastpath.  The Fastpath has a BNC connector (via AUI/BNC converter) and 
will connect to a 3com etherlink board in the PC.  Until GS/TCP comes out, 
I'll use PC MacLAN Connect 6.0 to act as the Appletalk server for the GS and 
Mac. 

Am I on the right track?  Anybody have any other advice?  (or maybe a release 
date for GNO & GS/TCP?)   :)
