Sounds like a real cool program! I've played with something similar,
"TCP to Serial", and I think a coupla other possibilities should be
noted:
-Do a IN#2 (or whatever), and make your Apple // a toy for anyone who
wants to Telnet to it--or an Apple //-run BBS accessable from Telnet!
(of course, this would require the telnet gateway thing to be able to
recieve "calls")
-You can use your PC's internet connection (Maybe you have an internal
SupraSonic II or ETHERNET CARD in your PC?) as if it were connected
to your Apple // >:D
