Why bother when Commodore already has a "graphic" network that kicks Plodigy's
butt?  What happened to the port of Q-Link (I think that is the name) to
the Amiga?  I've seen it on the C64 and it looks rather nice.  Last time I
was at CES ('87), Commodore was talking about a port, but it never saw the
light of day.
