If you have a null modem cable you *should* be able to connect 2 computers (assuming you have terminal software on both sides). A null modem cable is a serial cable with a few of the wires reversed on one end so that the output of one becomes the input of another. Then, you tell the first computer to dial a 1 (you may have to disable dial-tone detection) you then tell the second computer to answer. They should handshake and then you can transfer files between them. If it worked for my Commodore 64 it should work on a real computer <g>. I don't have a Mac (yet), but I dont see why it wouldn't work.
