The little general purpose interface people were asking me about (and of which I sent schematics out to a lot of people) has a MC6850 ACIA port, which can run 19.2 Kbits/sec independent of the SIO bus. I could probably get my cousin to do up a PC board of this thing if I wheedled him a little. It is designed to run from the parallel port of the 800XL, but maybe there's a way to bring it out of the cartridge port on the old 800. I wouldn't mind having one of that type myself now that I have an 800 sitting around also. David, what do you have down there, an old 800 or other assorted 8-bitters? -John Sangster jhs@mitre-bedford.arpa ...ihnp4!linus!mbunix!jhs
