PC-NFS is a Sun Microsystems product that allows PC/ATs that are on
either flavor (thick or thin) ethernet to use a system that runs NFS
as a server.  I have heard rumors that you can run the PCs diskless.
You should check with you local Sun sales representaive.

N.B. -- I do not work for Sun and only know of this because we have
	been looking at diskless workstations lately.
