I'd be fascinated to hear of any gotchas if you
were curious enough to
give it a go. My skills at things like making serial cables are very
minimal indeed.
I know exactly where my Z88 and power supply are, serial cable and modem
not a problem. But! Dial-up services? I could RS232 onto a VAX...

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.
I haven't, but have all the pre-requisites to giving it a go...
