The doco's a little confusing on that point, but essentially it comes
down to making a small config change that intercepts Appletalk packets
before the main OS sees them and passes them straight into the Basilisk
emulator instead of letting Windows handle them. Then the emulator can
see the packets and handle them on the MacOS layer, so NCU works.
That reminds me, I was going to find Bolo again...

such a device is absolutely unavoidable, I will set it to activate when
the counter reaches 117 and the hero is just putting his plan into action.
