Both 8.1 and 8.6 have support for modem based Internet connections built in. Mac computers have always had serial ports built in, including the ones you have, so you simply need to acquire a Macintosh serial modem for the computers. The big difference in the Mac modems is that the serial connector is round. -- -- Mr. PopMan - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - "Does anybody want to play a game of pinball?"
