For some, dos is a thing of legend, cavorting with such mythical creatures as punch-cards, paper tape, COCO II, and the Timex membrane. I hadn't noticed you mention anything dos, and didn't want to see you overlook an avenue of exploration. It was a happy day for me when I finally graduated to ethernet. I have had few occasions since that required serial or parallel connections, but still keep my cables handy just in case. I will admit to a persistant curiosity about such networking in linux though, but have too many other distractions at present (priorities change though.) It could be worse ...
