Apple Macintosh clients are unable to attach and view files on the Windows NT Services for Macintosh (SFM) volume. This problem only happens with some network interface cards (NICs) after Windows NT 4.0 is upgraded to Service Pack 4 (SP4). The Intel Ether Express 8/16 is one of the NICs that exhibits this problem. Reverting back to SP3 resolves the problem. And, if there is a Seed Router on the network, the Windows NT Server computer is able to resolve the media access control (MAC) address of the Apple client.

The Macintosh project started in the late 1970s with Jef Raskin, an Apple employee, who envisioned an easy-to-use, low-cost computer for the average consumer. In September 1979, Raskin was authorized to start hiring for the project, and he began to look for an engineer who could put together a prototype. Bill Atkinson, a member of Apple's Lisa team (which was developing a similar but higher-end computer), introduced him to Burrell Smith, a service technician who had been hired earlier that year. Over the years, Raskin assembled a large development team that designed and built the original Macintosh hardware and software; besides Raskin, Atkinson and Smith, the team included Chris Espinosa, Joanna Hoffman, George Crow, Jerry Manock, Susan Kare, Andy Hertzfeld, and Daniel Kottke.

Service for Macintosh will be coordinated through Apple's conventional channels, which include Apple dealers and the more than 300 RCA service centers nationwide. Macintosh was designed for simple servicing: the system is composed of only four modules, each of which can be easily replaced in the event of failure.
