 Run kermit on both machines and tie the two modums together. Most serial 
cards can be used with direct connection. On an apple super serial card
turn the jumper block to terminal and the connection will work as if you
had a phone line going. I have connected a kaypro and franklin(apple ii+)
together and ran them at 19200 baud. Boy does the data fly.
