You should get MacLink+ if you plan on tranfering files (other than
ASCII) between the two machines.  It's a performer!  Also, it's
AFE-compatible, so you can use your FDHD if you have one and do direct
tranfers.  If you want to do straight ASCII then it's no sweat.  Just
hook 'em both up (via phone-to-phone, or RS-232 serial) and have one
'dial' and one 'receive'.  Then send/receive just like you do normally!
