Walter, the Accent I have is a Stand Alone.  Accent does make a card for
the Toshiba's but this computer won't take a card because there is no
place for expantion slots.

I made a very serious mistake when I bought it.  It is a really cute
little computer, it has a weird keyboard layout, but it really is cute,
and in all fairness it has a whole lot of features.  It is a 286
machine.  It is faster than my desk top, it has a fourty megabyte drive,
and will handle both low and high density disks.

The reason it is a mistake though is by the time I bought the Accent and
Flipper, I had laid down quite a bit of money.  The other problem is
that when I have it set up with a modem, the place becomes a disaster
area.  There are cables going here and there-- the power supply, the
Accent, the power supply to the Accent, the connection to the modem, the
power supply to the modem-- I think you get the point.
