[] Anybody looking for an el-cheapo terminal? For a short time, (I'm not sure when the sale ends), Radio Shack is selling thier hokey micro color computer for $59.95 (in Canada, I don't know how incredibly cheap it is in the US). Anyway, the amazing thing about it is that this micro coco has a BUILT-IN RS232. However, the owner's manual does not tell how to access the serial port. I bought one of these things and ordered the technical manual, which will hopefully tell me how to read from the port and set baud rates, etc. If enough people are interested, I will describe using this wee beasty as a terminal to the net (once I get the doc, of course).

Radio Shack also sells a communications package that works with the MC-10. I forget the price but it includes the cable and telephone jacks. Tony Scafidi ..!allegra!eosp1!scafidi
