These are also options for those warranty-bound people Zane mentioned: 1) Null-modem. Cheap and limited only by the speed of your RS232 port. Every nerd knows how to wire one of these up (and has one or two of them). I've set up PPP across a null-modem connection before; its not too difficult. 2) USB keychain drives? 3) Parallel port Zip drive 4) Pen-and-Paper-Protocol (a bit slow) Cheers, - Dave http://www.digistar.com/~dmann/ (out of date)
