Apple Macintosh System 7.5 - Manual (Page 79)

If you are connected using AppleTalk (MacIP), the pop-up menu looks
like this:
AppleTalk (MacIP) is most often used if your computer is using Apple
Remote Access or LocalTalk for network access. This configuration requires
your network administrator to install an Apple IP Gateway or similar
equipment from a third-party provider.
Getting more help
You can get step-by-step instructions for using the Open Transport control
panels with Macintosh Guide, available in the Guide (h) menu when the
Finder is the active program. With Balloon Help, also available in the Guide
menu, you can get information about any item on the screen simply by
pointing to the item with the mouse.
For additional late-breaking news about Open Transport, see its Read Me
files in the Open Transport Information folder on the Before You Install disk
(or in the Before You Install folder on the CD).
PC Exchange
Your computer can open disks and files that are formatted for IBM-
compatible personal computers. You can exchange disks and documents with
DOS and Windows computers. Your computer can also initialize disks for
either Mac OS-based or DOS computers.
When you put a floppy disk formatted for an IBM-compatible personal
computer into your computer, the disk’s icon on your screen says “PC.”
You can open the DOS disk just as you would open a Mac OS disk and open
files on the disk just as you open Mac OS files. Your computer uses
“translators” in conjunction with your application programs to open
documents created in DOS applications.
