  Hmm...as I recall, at least part of the setup includes Amigas...1000s I
think. But I believe they use the serial ports on the machines to talk to a
PC-clone and the bandwidth is always known, as is what's going across it. The
LAN management was early bound into the system. There will not be more than
4 players on each team, for now anyways, so they don't have to worry about
expansion.
  Mind you, I have never gotten to play the game...spent better part of 4
hours wandering around >looking< for the place in Chicago...8<
