DOUBLETALK

For as long as Apple and Microsoft operating systems have lived together in the computing world, different solutions have been used to get the two platforms to communicate with each other. In this respect, two applications - Thursby Software's Dave and Miramar Systems' PC Maclan - have dominated the scene.

Nevertheless, Connectix – the makers of Virtual PC and Virtual Game Station – has now entered the fray with DoubleTalk.

DoubleTalk lets you integrate your Macintosh into a Windows network or a stand-alone PC without making any changes to the network itself. The only requirement on your part is that you connect your Mac to the PC via either a hub or crossover cable, and configure your Macintosh as part of an NT domain or workgroup.

When you install DoubleTalk, a set-up assistant runs automatically and guides you through the process of configuring the system properly. But if your plans are to connect to a company network, you will need some information provided by network administrators.
