As I hear it from the Apple folks in my area, there will really be no
commercial release of "Rhapsody". What will be released is a "MacOS X
Server" and "MacOS X Workstation".

I assume that Appletalk server support (beyond File Sharing) will be at
least a part of the server version if not both MacOS X flavors.

Kind of makes Netatalk under MacOS X a moot point.
