Or the MuPET interface for Commodore PETs around 1980-81. Very short
range, using ribbon cables, but good for fileshareing, printer sharing,
and with a bit of programming also machine-to-machine ops.
Oooh yes. I might even have *used* that, in my Computer Studies
'O'-level class, around 1983-1984.
I also really should have remembered Sinclair's ZX Network via the
Interface 1 - good catch, Jules!
