	I am interested in networking a Fujitsu pc with a clone XT.
	Basically, since the Fujitsu is not truly compatible and
	will not run most IBM software, I was thinking I could take
	a shell of an XT (a motherboard with memory, a floppy and
	power supply, and an RS232 card for interface) and have it 
	serve as a slave for the Fujitsu to run software.

	I am open to suggestions.  I do not really want to spend a
	lot of money or buy a lot of additional hardware.  The 
	Fujitsu does have an RS232 port.  I already have MSC 4.0
	to work with as far as writing any drivers I might need.

	This is not my PC.  It belongs to a professor of mine who
	was foolish enough to buy this white elephant a few years
	ago and now wants to stick with it.  I realize it may be
	quite an undertaking, but he is not in any big hurry.

	Tom
