subject: AppleTalk Vs LocalTalk

Hello Jean,

  JP> This is Apple talk, Tom. And it also is Apple plugs.

Apple used to refer to both their network protocol and their serial LAN
hardware as AppleTalk.  When they introduced support for the AppleTalk
protocol over Ethernet hardware they renamed AppleTalk hardware
"LocalTalk", presumably to avoid confusion.
