However, this is probably what you want:

I think the terminal versus PC with emulator app discussion is a general
issue. Where does one draw the line?
For instance, interfacing an IDE drive to a stock C64 is generally
considered OK in the CBM circles, but using an SuperCPU is considered
heresy by many. At what point do you draw the line?

Note I picked up a used lap/top for a serial
terminal
for about $125. Now where can I find pro-comm?
Simtel used to have a copy of it (and still may) before there was
ProComm+.
