One followup note.  Yes, you can use the DeskWrtiter on the modem port
but, as I realized after posting my last message, it tends to conflict
with the cable already there for the modem! Just do what I do:  get a 
serial T-switch box and flip between them as needed.

'Course, that raises the problem of printing while online... :-)
