Well, I did reinforce it with electrical tape. Should be fairly hard
to break now. :)

Isn't that always the case? (If it ain't broke, I can fix it)

I think: the manual was explaining it, and things like to share data
with your bigger computer. Too bad all my other computers are limited
to 9600bps. ;(
But its handy; I played Doom with my sister over it. The Compaq
handled the video fairly well.

Woo hoo. But then it might cost too much to send overseas, and/or get
broken in transit. I would like to hook it up to the 286 monitor I
have here. Thanks for the offer.
