If you use the Terminal Emulator, you can login to systems. But you only have 40 columns. OK to vi because it wraps aound the screen. Not so good for games, unless... you can plug in a ansi compatable terminal to the RS232 port of a peripheral expansion, using the Terminal Emulator, and a little basic programming, you will have your 80 columns. I have seen it done by a co-worker, and he used an old hazeltine terminal.
