It should be possible. Several years ago (around '96) I had a Mac LC doing PPP over a null modem cable with an x86 linux box. I don't remember for sure what speed I had it running at, but I'm sure it was at least 38400. That was with Mac OS, not linux (which won't run on the LC), but it does indicate even old Mac serial ports are capable of doing at least halfway decent speeds. -- Aaron Schrab [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.execpc.com/~aarons/ "But what we need to know is, do people want nasally-insertable computers?"
