Does Appletalk work with Kegs? It doesn't with any other emulator I've
used. I'll have to check into this.
Of course, my iMac still doesn't have a serial port for the Localtalk
adapter and my IIgs doesn't have an Appletalk stack that works with
ethernet so I still don't see how kegs and mac-on-linux will help.
