Yes, Mac OS10 can be made to work with Windows but as of 10.3.2 it is not reliable in a production environment. Often the only way to get a Windows share to mount is rebooting both machines.


If you have time to waste, I'm sure you could share files using two tin cans and some string. But if you're on a deadline and have clients to bill, something that only works well "most" of the time can cost a fortune in productivity. It adds up, every day.


I've used Novell in a larger company and both PC MacLAN and Dave since I went out on my own. This looks like another good SOHO alternative. Thanks, I appreciated the article.

    I think this has been improved in 10.3.3.
