- True, the 140 does have 2 serial ports, but you can't use both of them
- *and* a modem at the same time anyway...
-
- There is a $140 gadget that gives the 100 2 serial ports too, by using
- the modem slot.
-
- Me? I'm going to get a *big* modem to drop into my 100 as soon as I
- can afford it, and then having only one serial port to use for a modem
- *and* localtalk won't be a problem.
-
- Like every else, just my $.02 worth
