Neat - I had never heard of ACE. In my (fairly limited) experience it works fine, although running the cores at 140 MHz (and the network) forgives a lot of sins. I actually wrote my CP/NET server as a regular CP/M application in Turbo Pascal, so I can't speak to other server solutions. The idea behind my ZedRipper was to basically turn a 'multi-user' CP/M system into a single-user/multi-tasking system, and it worked better than expected.
