Geiselman (aka Kordite sutai-Restarc, IKEF) From: akuo@cory.Berkeley.EDU (Augie Kuo) Path: cory.Berkeley.EDU!akuo The Apple-Cat has a serial port on that, so you can hook your new 1200 baud modem to that and save $$$ and a slot. Cool 300 baud modem eh? I have a set up just like this, but I don't use it much since I have a 2400 baud modem now. If anyone's interested, I'd be willing to sell it for $130 (Apple-Cat 300 and a 1200 Hayes compatible). ______________________________________________________________ ARPA: akuo@cory.berkeley.edu UUCP: {ihnp4!crash, hplabs!hp-sdd!crash}!gryphon!pnet02!akuo INET: akuo@pnet02.CTS.COM
