I do have a external modem that I can use and as a matter of fact have used
on /dev/tty000.  But it is of no advantage as it is 1200bps.
I do have another non-unix machine that I use as a terminal and occasionally
download data with.(I write a simple program on the non-unix machine which
writes ed commands to the unix-pc and copies data to a file that way.)  Is that
networking?
