 -	Which makes me think, and yes my question here
it OT, so reply
directly... My OS X G4 has a modem port, but no other external serial
ports... (those bastards at Apple! :) Is there a way to hook up my VT420  to
 it, so I can log into Darwin? Maybe using an
external modem hanging off  of
 the VT420?  
 Get that Griffin G-Port if you aren't using the modem. It replaces the 
 modem card and gives you a standard Mac RS-422 serial/localtalk port. I 
 think they are about $40.

 Otherwise, what about a USB to Serial adaptor?

  	The G-Port is a neat idea, but since I'm poor at the moment, and
have an external modem already, that's why I was thinking along that
route...
