We are looking at networking some additional dorms this fall.  One possibility
is wireless networking, since some of our dorms may be replaced within a
few years.  _Network World_ for August 9 has an article about a company
named Metricom, Inc., which has a wireless LocalTalk which they will be
installing for Stanford soon.

Is anyone from Stanford able to respond with some details?

Does anyone have an address/phone# for Metricom?

The article also says they did an installation for Apple in Cupertino.

This has been a test life.  This was only a test.  If this had been an actual
life you would have been given instructions on where to go and what to do.
