(NY, NY) Lines: 20 I just ran across an interesting item I thought people might be interested in. Technical Magic Inc. (800-962-8787) makes a dual Q-bus card called the MicroTalk which emulates a DLV11-E and has an integral modem on one port. The top of the card has an RS-232 connector (the same as the normal DLV's, *not* DB-25) and two jacks that look like RJ-11's (presumably telco and telset). There have been integral modems for PC's for years; I've been wondering when somebody would come out with them for a Q-bus/Unibus. I could see a big market for a hex Unibus board with 16 RJ-11's (or a 50-pair telco connector) across the top that emulates 2 DMF-32's. Note: I have no connection with Technical Magic Inc. I never even heard of them before running across their ad in _Hardcopy_, nor have I actually used one of these critters. -- Roy Smith System Administrator, Public Health Research Institute 455 First Avenue, New York, NY 10016
