Has a software/cable called 'acrobat' that transform the joystick
port in a RS232. You can found more information about in the web
page of Genuine Network (search in Baboo or MRC, please). Using it
you can connect without problems in other serial port (PC, Amiga,
Mac, Atari ST, other MSX, etc...)
A other soluction is a mini-LAN used in the schools in the old
USSR. I don't know how this things runs but I have a version of
MSX-DOS adapted to run in 'networks'. But I never found some
information about the HARDWARE!!! Any former-sovietic student
can help me?

Is a high error ratio. Common networks works with a BER (Binary
Error Ration) lower than 10^-8, i.e., each 10^-8 bits sent one
bit is wrong (inverted).
The ideal can be a a real network for share files/resourcers into
MSX and PC???
