Sean, I've used a Raspberry Pi with my 102, 200, and Commodore 64/Turbo232 cartridge. I just used a standard USB to serial adapter on the Pi, ran Linux, configured my Pi using this: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=71&t=48683 (last post) and was able to log in over all 3. Works very well.
BTW, long-time Ars reader here. Awesome series on Prenda Law.
