One easy solution is a program called the $25 network from Imodes. Its hooks 2 or 3 PC's together via the serial port at a transfer rate of about 115K baud. It runs in the background and takes up very little memory. I know of other people running BBS's using this program in a similar enviroment. The adress is: Information Modes P.O.
