Couldn't you put a couple floppies and a modem on one of these things and make it usable over a dialup? If you're already spending $5K, another $1500 seems insignificant for the extra capability. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
