And if I ever get around to playing with SLIP and
PLIP, I plan on
eventually hooking up old systems (such as my TI-99/4a and KayPro II) to
a Linux box so that they can access the Internet via a shell account.
Why the Linux box? Can't you just dial in directly to a shell account with
the
Kaypro and/or TI-99/4a?
I don't think there are any local ISPs around here that offer shell
accounts anymore. And even if there was, I would really have no desire
to go back to dialup.
