Next up we have "The NetPICT Disk". It looks like this disk originally came bundled with a book called "Live Wired" (read here: https://archive.org/details/mac_Live_Wired_Networking_Made_Simple_1993/mode/2up)

I don't have the book that it goes with though, so I'm not sure where I originally acquired this disk from.

This is an interesting one, though. It comes with a whole bunch of PICT files showing off stacks for various Mac networking hardware, software, and protocols. I opened up a few that may be of interest to #GlobalTalk folks and took a screenshot.

It also comes with a HyperCard stack that supposedly lets you view the PICTs, but I couldn't get it to work - so I just used good ol' MacDrawPro.

I couldn't find this one on the Garden either, so I'll see about getting it uploaded there later today. For now, it's on my GlobalTalk share in the disk images folder.
