Thanks to everyone who sent me a reply re: my serial port. It turns out that it works w/o any problem at all, except that I built my serial cable with my DTR and protective ground pins switched around :-(. I'm using a Packard Bell 2400. This is my second unit. The first one flaked out. One day, it just stopped generating the proper DTMFs. It'd dial, but the tones wouldn't get picked up. Anyhow, now I have 2400 bps, and I get to keep my old roms so I can still boot off of my external drive. --Will Wong
