I agree. And I read somewhere that Apple was hard at work integrating
TCP/IP as a true networking (as opposed to Internet) protocol for the Mac
OS. It would only make sense since everyone else is doing it (even Novell
is bowing down IPX in favor of TCP/IP as their default protocol). Let's
hope Apple does it soon and does it well.
