The problem with your setup, although it is really neat, is that you don't 
have Ethernet/ISDN, your keyboard is not remote. There is a new PC out from 
Gateway which is basically a Home Theatre with a 31" TV (which doubles as a 
640x480 non-interlaced VGA monitor), Ethernet, CD, remote keyboard/trackball, 
etc...It's all integrated and ready for ISDN/Ethernet/ Cable modems. 28.8k 
modems are still too slow for browsing. The Amiga should come with Ethernet 
built in or an inexpensive way to do it. As it is, the cost of a PCMCIA 
Ethernet card and the sw to drive it puts the A1200 out of range for being on 
a fast LAN.
