- This sounds extremely interesting. There are afew local sysops that I
- know would be interested with more information. Some, in the past put up
- systems using an 800 number. Too expensive and I would advise against
- it. But a direct Telnet connection to the internet to me is a whole new
- concept for a commodore board. QUESTION: What is a Linux machine, cost,
- and where can you buy one? Please send me e-mail one this one!!!
