AppleShare users who do not upgrade to System 7 -- including users of
Macintosh System 6, AppleShare PC, and the AppleShare Ilgs software -- can

also access folders or disks shared by System 7 users.

Networkwide privacy for users

The file-sharing and program-linking features of System 7 introduce

capabilities that extend the reach of Macintosh and PowerBook users on a
network:

- File sharing allows items stored on a Macintosh or PowerBook to be accessed
by other users on the network.

- Program linking allows a Macintosh program to receive commands from another
computer.

To ensure that these features do not compromise privacy on a network, there

are various levels of protection:

- You Cor the individual user) can use the Installer's Customize option to
install System 7 Pro without the file-sharing software.

- Both file sharing and program linking are turned off until the user turns
them on.

- Once file sharing is turned on, the user needs to take specific actions to
share a folder or disk.

- Once a folder is shared, the owner can control guest access and can specify
individual users or groups who have exclusive access to this item.

It's important to inform users about these privacy features. The Macintosh
documentation included with the software describes how to share and restrict
access to a Macintosh or PowerBook computer.

Memory requirements

System 7 Pro requires a hard disk and 4 MB of internal random-access memory
CRAM); 5 MB of RAM are recommended.

Upgrading RAM on Macintosh and PowerBook computers

Users with large applications such as graphics or page layout programs, or
users who open several applications at once, will probably need additional
RAM.

Macintosh and PowerBook memory upgrade kits are available from your Apple
dealer.

!! WARNING:

If you have never installed a memory upgrade in a Macintosh or

PowerBook computer, contact your Apple reseller or representative for a
demonstration and instructions before proceeding with the installation. !!
