I'm going to buy an interface for a communication device that connects
via RS-232.  Unfortunately they only sell interfaces for PC and Apple
compatibles.  Rather than buy another computer, I would like to just
emulate one of these on my A2000.  It's amazing what you can hide in
an Amiga without your spouse knowing :-).


Does AMAX II and the Bridgeboard support using the serial port?
If so, any guesses if they'll work with the I/O expansion project
in the 2/91 issue of Amazing Computing?

Eventually, I'll build an interface for the Amiga but I need to buy one
to see how it works.
