I've been asked about doing this for an exhibition.
From some cursory Googling, it seems that the Z88 has a terminal
emulator, and equipped with a suitable serial cable, you could just
run a cable to a host device with an Internet connection and have a
text-only terminal session fairly readily.
Not much more than that, though.
Has anyone on CC done this?
Not with a Z88, but I have done this with my Tandy 102, just for the
heck of it. I believe the displays of the two machines are similar in
size, and at least with the Tandy it was quite painful - it works, but
not being able to see more than 8 lines of text at a time gets
irritating quite fast.
One of the nice things with the Z88 is that while you do only have 8
lines you get double the character width of the Tandy 102 at 80 characters.
