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?
