I think you guys are just unimaginative. WIN95 des let you start one
comm program while another is running (sharing a port) and start a Windows
app from a DOS box. I use a DOS comm program called COMMO and can easily
write a commo script that logs on, loads tia, and then opens a web
browser. So, yes, you have to be a little resourceful, but it can be
easily done.
