Did anyone notice the article in InfoWorld on how to create a peer network 
of
 hundreds of WFW workstations around the world (including some at Micosoft)? 
 
(Notes from the Field, Robert X. Cringely, "Windows for Workgroups has a

Run WFW 3.11 with sharing enabled, use Microsoft TCP/IP stack.  Depending on

country 
via your modem or Internet router.
