Ahh, but you can use a TeleVideo on the internet. You just need to find a 
provider that offers dialup Shell access.

The problem is, most provide only PPP access these days.

OR, you could connect via a machine or device that supports PPP and then 
share that connection to your network. Use the Televideo thru a terminal 
server onto the network, and then telnet to just about anywhere you wish.

You can telnet to a web server, and read the raw web page if you so 
desire. A quick read thru the appropriate RFCs will tell you the commands 
you need to know. But the web text itself is all 7 bit ascii data. It 
comes down in more or less human readable form.
