Designed for use in small offices, the completely modular ShareWork permits as many as 32 PCs to share eight printers and up to 28 SCSI devices without a complex network operating system. Each ShareWork SCSI module includes its own control circuitry and plugs into the back of a free-standing device; you can then daisy chain up to six devices without adding more modules. ShareWork is compatible with DOS and Windows; the starter kit costs $149.
