[net.micro.zx] Quick-before it's too late: Questions on modems

mff@wuphys.UUCP (Swamp Thing) (07/20/85)

I am thinking of purchasing on of those combination modem-ASCII converters for
the TS-1000.  Couple of questions:

	1) Any general comments?

	2) Do you know of any specific models to get ( or avoid ) and where they are
	   available?

	3) Can you get upper and lower case?  I'm thinking of using it to mainly
	   enter text.  Is this feasable?  I could live with ed, but vi would be
	   better.  Any hope at all?

	4) Anyone got a used one currently being used as a doorstop that they would
	   consider selling?

Thanks in advance.  Mail responses to me.  I'lll post a summary (perhaps
somewhere else, unfortunatley)
