LocalTalk

LocalTalk is an old type of computer network technology. It was created by Apple in the 1980s and used to connect computers and other devices like printers and scanners. LocalTalk used cables to connect two devices, and it worked by sending out a special signal that could be picked up by other LocalTalk devices on the same network. The computers would then be able to exchange information with each other.
