8<-- nice nice, but it would be better if it were a NETWORK, so, with one
(!) or more computers, including one or more PC's (that was the original
question, remember)
we can use some kind of token to decide which computer may send data. If the
computer doesn't have the token, it must read the data and relay it to the
next.
Still, I think MIDI is better: we don't neet to think about the physical and
network layer (speaking in OSI terms), that's already been done AND the big
advantage: we can use interrupts, so we don't have to poll.
